Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

For XML-based documents like application/xhtml+xml, it would be nice to have way
to view it as generic XML document, perhap like the stylesheet switcher (which
is removed anyway).

For XML-based documents that Mozilla doesn't support, like image/svg,
application/anythinghere+xml (RSS, Atom, OPML, OML, etc), there should be an
option to open them as generic XML. Currently they can only be downloaded or
opened as default application like Adobe SVG Viewer.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a XML-based document

Actual Results:  
Either render correctly or don't render at all.

Expected Results:  
For supported types, should render correct and provide a "XML switcher".
For unsupported types, should provide way to view as generic XML.
We have a bug for that.
