The browser will invoke the download manager when navigating to a MIME type that is not natively supported (or when using the appropriate content-disposition, of when choosing "save link"). The download manager will download any file whose MIME type is supported for ACTION_VIEW by any installed application. That partially takes care of your 3rd question (though you can't make it happen inline in the browser).
The other 3 cases aren't currently supported, and quite some work will be required in the framework until those can be supported reasonably securely.
