Chrome behaves correctly on Linux, macos and windows, I can confirm that much. Files are immediately closed when they are no longer in use, either by a FileReader() or by an XmlHttpRequest.
Firefox /appears/ to immediately be closing files as well, as long as they are only accessed by a FileReader and not by an XmlHttpRequest, however this could just be luck.
And I agree my phrasing was suboptimal on that part. I recall that was the first impression I had when encountering the issue and misremembered the details.
