272088 - content-type text/* is ignored. download-dialog pops up

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 57342

(Firefox :: File Handling, defect)

Description

[itooktheredpill]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041119 Firefox/1.0 (Debian package 1.0-3)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041119 Firefox/1.0 (Debian package 1.0-3)

Although the url is a completely normal text-file and i would expect firefox to
display it, the annoying download-dialog pops up, i have to save the file
somewhere and need to take other steps to be able to view it.
It is perfectly understandable that files like
http://itooktheredpill.dyndns.org/programming/ascii.txt are regarded as binary
data. But the python-source file (text/x-python) or any other like *.c should be
displayed inside or at least there should be an option to adjust the handling.
Or maybe the download-dialog could contain an option 'view text in browser'...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the webpage (http://itooktheredpill.dyndns.org/programming/gtk-vbox-tree.py)
Actual Results:  
Download Dialog pops up

Expected Results:  
Display the text-file in browsers window.
