I'm setting it to severity "wishlist" rather than closing it. It can be worked around in the plugin, but whether the browser will take any notice I'm unsure – it's possible that some will infer the correct MIME type (where it was reported as text/plain) from the URL, and text/plain may well be filtered out of the lists of MIME types reported as supported by installed plugins; so long as there's a browser which does neither, that may be worth doing. Regardless, it's always correct in these cases to inform the relevant website admin of the problem. -- | Darren Salt | linux at youmustbejoking | nr.
