Public bug reported:

The modal js code doesn't know how to process and handle when the
response data is a file attachment. What it does is append the data from
the file to the modal_wrapper.

My reason for hitting this is that I have a form which asks for some
information, and then the handle function returns a file.

```
    content = render_to_string(
        template, context, request=request)
    content = '\n'.join([line for line in content.split('\n')
                         if line.strip()])
    response = http.HttpResponse(
        content, content_type="text/plain")

    filename = 'openstack_backup_codes.txt'
    disposition = 'attachment; filename=%s' % filename
    response['Content-Disposition'] = disposition.encode(
        'utf-8')
    response['Content-Length'] = str(len(response.content))
    return response
```
