Hrm. It seems odd that a library would write non-cache data to the filesystem without the embedder specifically opting in to that.

This is what wk1 does, try to open a binary file in minibrowser, for example, and the data is loaded inot the view as text. That's no expected. Note that download() doesn't download the file, but initiates a download operation. That's how all browsers work when you click on link and the content can't be shown in the web view.

wait, I'm wrong, they ignore it actually, only download it when response has an attachment
