Details

Using Firefox nightly on Mac, 1. mkdir -p ~/px/fff 2. firefox -profile ~/px/fff/ 3. Load a PDF that triggers pdf.js and crashes. 4. firefox -profile ~/px/fff/ Expected: 1st try: restore PDF 2nd try: "select tabs to restore" 3rd try: safe mode Result: Firefox decides to DOWNLOAD the pdf, while showing either the home page or the "select tabs to restore" page. Not sure if this is more of a session restore bug or a PDF viewer bug.
I tested using the crashing PDF in bug 903722. That crash is Mac-only and also triggers bug 717758 and bug 904276.
most likely bug 901294
