Images are forced to be downloaded
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Every image from this reporter is treated like a file that cannot be opened in the browser. This forces the images to be downloaded and opened in a separate program.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Find a bug report with a image attached (for example #0003482)
  2. Click on a link to the image
  3. Receive a prompt to download image (step depends on the configuration of the browser)
Additional Information

This might be a misconfiguration like .htaccess file preventing from setting correct mime-types or some 'content-disposition' header that explicitly forces download. The resource gets accessed/downloaded by the browser from the server in any case, so there is no reason to keep this restriction.
