User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:16.0) Gecko/16.0 Firefox/16.0
Build ID: 20120626030539

Steps to reproduce:

Go to Tools > Options > Applications
Change Portable Document Format to "Always Ask"
Go and Download a pdf file.


Actual results:

The dialog that opens does not contain any "Preview in Nightly" option (pdf.js).
Selecting Nightly from the list of applications only yields the same box again after download (same as drag-dropping files into Nightly)


Expected results:

1. Include "Preview in Nightly" Option or
2. "Open with Applications" -> "Nightly" should automatically Preview
(this can be done by forcing Preview in Nightly via pdf.js when Firefox directly loads the file from the disk)
