Comment (by zooko):

 I like the idea, but I'm not sure how to accomplish it.

 Immutable uploads don't include metadata about the file type, not even a
 filename whose extension provides a hint. Therefore we can't really tell
 the browser what to do with the file other than download it as type
 "application/octet-stream".

 Perhaps the immutable upload could accept a filename as well and construct
 a url of the form {{{/file/$IMMCAP/@@named=/$FILENAME}}}.

 See also #827, #277, and #307.
