Unsure which Daniel you meant, but I would probably instead say:
'Userspace can release blobs as soon as they do not need to refer to
them by their blob object ID. For instance, if you are using a MODE_ID
blob in an atomic commit and you will not make another commit reusing
the same ID, you can destroy the blob as soon as the commit has been
issued, without waiting for it to complete.'

Cheers,
Daniel
