@jwatt What's this about a mass bug change? The link is to an uninformative routine comment on an unrelated bug report, and googling for similar comments only brings up this single bug report. Was this a failed test for an upcoming actual mass bug change? Or can you explain what it means with a correct link, or more information about what the link means?

Open with a certain application 2. Save to disk What would be nice is a third option: 3. Treat as text/plain The wording could be altered... "Display as text in browser" or something. Sometimes you just want to quickly visit a file on the web and look for something in it, and the fact that you *could* open it in a more customized application is true but not really easier for you at that moment. If you just want to look a Python script for a version number at the top it is not necessary to open it in your IDE or save it to disk; you just want to open it in the normal viewing window as plain text and quickly find what you need to look at.
