We intend to implement in Chrome to block automatic download initiated from ad frames, where "ad frame" is defined by Chrome's AdTagging infrastructure. See the design doc.

This intervention can fit in the description "act in a user-agent-defined manner to safeguard the user from a potentially hostile download" in the HTML Standard. See also the pull request that moves around that description a little bit.

Generalize the description of aborting downloads
8891139 
A user agent can abort a download for a variety of reasons, not necessarily restricted to the cross-origin scenarios. See WICG/interventions#67 for more context.

Also move the potential of blocking a download out of the filename selection algorithm.

(As noted in #72, we intend to archive this repository and are thus triaging and resolving all open issues)

Closing the issue, as from a standards perspective this seems to have been covered by whatwg/html#4450
