    Description

      The iOS FileReader's readAsText handler encodes the result with HTML percent escapes, and the iOS-specific Javascript code decodes it. This platform-specific Javascript code doesn't support slicing.

      Either the encoding is there for a reason and I'll implement slicing for the iOS JS code, or we can remove the encoding and the unnecessary separate implementation. We need to know why that encoding was added in the first place.
