Downloading entire blob sounds like quite expensive operation just to check for blob existence. Are we sure there are no other ways to achieve similar result with less cost? Or is it the case that everytime we check for blob existence wa actually want to have it downloaded if it exists? If both answers are "no" then it looks like blob service might be missing some API.

For invite links, blobs should be rather small - a string representing an object with an ID and a URL, so the cost of downloading the entire blob shouldn't be important. And almost every time we download an invite link blob, we would check what's inside it.
