Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Often I want to open a .log file, which is just plain text in Firefox. However, the browser asks me if I want to open it in program * or download it. But Firefox should be perfectly able to display plain text files.

Would it be possible to allow .log files to be opened inside the browser like other text files?
