Subject: Group Files don't open in Safari, Webkit and Internet Explorer 6
If I request a file stored in a google group[1] without supplying the
gda key/value in the querystring (?gda=xxx) then I get a 302 response
with a body (with a link to the file with gda in the querystring) but
no Location header.  Firefox renders the body OK, allowing me to view
the file.  Safari, Webkit and Internet Explorer 6 don't display the
body which makes it look as though the file doesn't exist.

I've added to the Webkit bug report[2] (as I think a missing Location
header is valid as per the HTTP spec) but figured it might be good if
the Location header was sent so that it works in all browsers.
