1902	"WUI: ""Download a file"" should error on directory"	zooko	Lcstyle	"I just took a call from a customer (TV) who was confused because they were trying to ""Download a file"" in the WUI, and they mistakenly had a directory cap when they thought they had a file cap, and when they clicked ""Download!"" in the WUI it was taking them to a directory listing page in the WUI. After they and I figured out what was going on, they agreed with me when I said that the ""Download a file"" box in the WUI should give an error if you use a directory URI in it. (There is a ""View File or Directory"" box if you want to view a directory.)

To close this ticket, make it so that the ""Download a file"" box gives an error page if the user provided a directory cap instead of a file cap."	defect	assigned	normal	soon	code-frontend-web	1.9.2		usability LeastAuthority.com wui
