New issue 15075 by douglips: Open PDF file in new tab results in blank  
zombie tab that can't be killed
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15075

Chrome Version       : 3.0.189.0-r18569
OS + version : ubuntu/hardy heron
CPU architecture (32-bit / 64-bit): amd64
window manager : GNOME
URLs (if applicable) : any
Behavior in Firefox 3.x (if applicable): n/a
Behavior in Chrome for Windows (optional): unknown

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a PDF email attachment in a new tab
2. The tab stays at about:blank and the PDF file is downloaded and opened
in your PDF viewer (expected behavior, same as firefox)
3. Now, however, notice that you can't close the blank tab.  You also can't
close the window containing the tab, and you can't exit chrome.  Since
there is no task manager on chrome-linux yet, I don't know if that would
solve the problem.

What is the expected result?
The blank tab should be killable like any other tab.

What happens instead?
The tab shuffles forth from the nameless depths, a roiling horror that none
dare look upon.  Er, it just stays there forever.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot
and backtrace if possible.
