I can confirm this behavior too.
It only works when calling firefox from command line. then less opens on
the current terminal.
less should be called on a new xterm (e.g. xterm -x less tmp_file,
gnome-terminal -x ...).
Anyhow, when clicking that link the download window opens, and if you
select 'Open' then file is opened with gedit.
