This bug was fixed in the package webbrowser-app -
0.23+16.04.20151222.1-0ubuntu1

---------------
webbrowser-app (0.23+16.04.20151222.1-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Add keyboard shorcuts for 'next' (Ctrl+G) and 'previous'
    (Ctrl+Shift+G) while in find-in-page mode. (LP: #1522152)
  * Do not allow interacting with tabs and the chrome while the settings
    page is shown. (LP: #1524353)
  * Fix a crash when clearing the navigation history while the new tab
    view is open. (LP: #1525937)
  * Fix deleting multiple domains from the history view. Add unit tests
    for the HistoryView component. (LP: #1527144)
  * Fix some obvious issues in PreviewManager. (LP: #1519019)
  * Fix the tab preview sometimes covering the tab chrome, in the tabs
    view. Offset tab previews by 1px to cover the semi-transparent
    horizontal line at the bottom of the tab chrome asset. (LP:
    #1520624)
  * Recognize openoffice and MS-office file formats as documents, now
    that the document viewer app knows how to render them. (LP:
    #1523452)
  * Update translation template.
  * Use the screen size (diagonal in millimeters) to determine which
    default UA string and which UA overrides to use. An empirical
    threshold of 19cm is being used, it is subject to further
    adjustments. (LP: #1504084)

Title:
  Not able to download office documents through webbrowser-app

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Fix Committed
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  We've recently released an update to Document Viewer which is now
  capable to open LibreOffice/MS-Office documents.

  Even if the application is installed on the device, it's not possible
  to download office files through browser-app, since no peer is
  available for handling the content.

  I had a look at:
      http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-app/trunk/view/head:/src/app/FileExtensionMapper.js

  And it seems that these documents are recognized as
  ContentType.Unknown.

  What we'd need is to add the support to the following file extensions: doc, docx, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx, odt, ods, odp.
  Alternatively, this is the list of mime types supported by Document Viewer: [1]
