MIME type of externally created file isn't updated after content has been added

[Karl-Philipp Richter]

When an application creates a file (e.g. `firefox` a download file) `nautilus ` recognizes an empty text file immediately and the user has to reload the view in order to trigger recognition of the MIME type after some data has been written to the file. This reload should be performed automatically.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

oh, also I can't confirm, I did save this launchpad page on the desktop folder, it appears directly as a html

Try a download, e.g. download Ubuntu 15.10 amd64 iso image from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?country=DE&version=15.10&architecture=amd64.
