Download file from binary field with firefox

[David BEAL (ak)]

It's not a firefox bug, it happens only in OpenERP context

Steps to reproduce :
1 Use firefox (at least on Ubuntu 13.10 and Mac), a recent version (not only the last), in my case 26.0.

2 Set your preferences : 'General / download / Always ask me where to save files' ; There is no bug if you set 'Save files to'

3 Test on a erp model with a binary field or create one ; do not test with specific field widget (like image), only standard field (not attachment menu)

4 Add an attachment on this field ans save your record, it's ok.

5 Click on your attachment link : you have a firefox pop up named 'Opening [my_file]' with 'save file' and 'cancel' button, normal case.

6 If you click on 'Save file', nothing happens.

You should have a window to save file, ...

...but you have nothing.

Workaround : if you click on left arrow of your keyboard very, very, very, very quickly after click on 'save...', (you get the window focus) you get the window to save your file

Openerp version : 7
web revision 4133.
server revision 5239

It's broken on other revisions, it depends only of your preferences options

Just wanted to add that this not only happens with binary fields, but with any file generated by OpenERP that you are then offered to download (Database backups, CSV exports, etc...) Really annoying.
