Public bug reported:
We've recently released an update to Document Viewer which is now
capable to open LibreOffice/MS-Office documents.
Even if the application is installed on the device, it's not possible to
download office files through browser-app, since no peer is available
for handling the content.
I had a look at:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-app/trunk/view/head:/src/app/FileExtensionMapper.js
And it seems that these documents are recognized as ContentType.Unknown.
What we'd need is to add the support to the following file extensions: doc,
docx, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx, odt, ods, odp.
Alternatively, this is the list of mime types supported by Document Viewer: [1]
