Description

Problem

I'm implementing a package that compresses blobs using Brotli compression. I would like the blobs to be automatically decompressed when downloading using Azure Storage Explorer. I found out today that Azure Storage Explorer supports automatic decompression for gzip and deflate encoded blobs.

Desired Solution

Support for automatic Brotli decompression, not just gzip and deflate.
