WebKit-based browsers (or at least OmniWeb and Safari) allow you to view PDF in 
the browser, and you can right-click anywhere on the PDF to view in your 
default application.  To do this, it will download the PDF to a temporary file 
in a hidden folder.

For Firefox, it looks like you'll have to do something different.
