Bug Description

I'm using the Breezy preview release.

I like to listen webradio, specifically to the trance radio channel of Digitally
Imported. So when I finished the installation of Breezy, i went to
http://www.di.fm/ with Epiphany, and clicked the Winamp 96k link to the .pls
file. I noticed that Epiphany simply downloads the file, and nothing more. I had
to load the playlist file manually in Rhytmbox. Please let Rhythmbox
automaticcally load the .pls file when I download it with Epiphany.

Thanks for your bug. You should have a "save as/download/open" dialog, don't you
get it?

I have "automatically download and open files" enabled in the preferences. If I
disable it, and click a link to a .pls file, it does give me such a dialog. If I
click "open" then, nothing happens.

the open button start rhythmbox here. What does "grep pls
/etc/gnome/defaults.list" say for you?

That means Rhytmbox is associated with pls files, correct? But still, I also
tried other websites with pls file links, but it doesn't open them. But to be
more precise, I noticed that when I click a link to a pls file in Epiphany, it
does open Rhytmbox, but in Rhytmbox the stream isn't added to the radio list,
and the stream doesn't play.
