with seamonkey 2000010408:

1. load url http://babel/automation/erik/framework
2. select "display xml widgets" or other script that uses perl

result: perl fails to run. Instead, seamonkey displays error: You are about to
download a file of type: x-unknown-content-type.

The scripts on this page are required for international testing.

Rick is this related to URI dispatching?

I don't see how this is a dup of 19035 -- I reopened it.

This looks like the perl script isn't returning a valid content type. Maybe
this is where we need to infer that the content is text/plain or text/html, but
we don't do that yet.
Target Milestone: M15
This was fixed when I checked in support for the unknown-content-type stream 
decoder (ie. the buffer sniffer).

The stream is now correctly identified as text/html
