Title:
  cannot download files with no destination app from webapps

Bug description:
  Using the webbrowser-app I can download any file, and will be prompted
  to open in an app (if apps that support that content-type exist on the
  system) or to download the file in the browser. The same behavior
  should be available webapps but is not.

  Steps to reproduce:
  - Open Gmail webapp
  - Open a message that has an attachment of a file of unsupported type (like a .tar, .click, etc)
  - click on the file to download

  Expected results:
  - I should be prompted to open the file in supported app or to download
  - If I choose download the file should be downloaded into ~/Downloads by the webbrowser-app

  Actual results:
  - I am told that no apps exist to support this type of file and am not allowed to download it
