           Summary: Data URLs don't map MIME types to macos filetypes in
                    10.6
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: data:text/x-vcard;charset=utf-8,BEGIN:VCARD%0AVERSION:
                    3.0%0AN:%3BANOther%0AFN:ANOther%0AORG:Apple%0AEND:VCAR
                    D
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: gregharewood at mac.com


The new file typing system on MacOS 10.6 has messed up the saving of data:
URLs.  In 10.5, it was possible to say....

<a href="data:text/x-vcard;charset=utf-8,BEGIN:VCARD...........">Click for my
card</a>

...and for it to open in Address Book, or save to Unknown.vcf.  This no longer
works, despite the correct MIME type being embedded.  The file is not mapped to
a MacOS type and is left untyped. (I have confirmed that text/x-vcard is still
listed in the document types for Address Book.)

data:text/x-vcard;charset=utf-8,BEGIN:VCARD%0AVERSION:3.0%0AN:%3BANOther%0AFN:ANOther%0AORG:Apple%0AEND:VCARD
