(Whiteboard: [bugday-20131209]) 

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131028112446

Steps to reproduce:

1. I wanted to open a file which was assigned to the VLC media player from the system.


Actual results:

1. Firefox asked me to open the file in the VLC media player, with another application or to save the file.


Expected results:

Firefox should also ask if the file should be run in Firefox directly.
