problems viewing txt file in browser

[RavanH]

Hi,

When opening a txt file e-mail attachment, it shows in a browser tab.
No problem there but I ran into two issues:

- It displays the content correctly but seems not to be able to line-
wrap making it (at least for some content) unpractical for reading and
thus pointless to show txt files in a browser tab instead of the
default text editor.

- When I right-click the content and select "Open with..." and choose
my text editor, the editor opens but complains: "Cannot open file
‘attachment:///59/....txt’. The tekst-editor cannot handle attachment:-
locations."

Saving the attachment first and then opening it in the text editor or
switching file format handling MIME-type text/plain (under Extra >
Preferences > Advanced > Downloads (uncheck "hide file-types handled
by Opera") from "Opera" to "Open in standard application" solves the
issue but... it would be nice if Opera could handle this format in a
more convenient manner by default :)
