 Data URIs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme

 In Firefox, you can right click a link with a data URI and download it.
 This makes for some really cool tricks, like drawing a picture in a
 <canvas> and offering it for download as a PNG
 (http://www.nihilogic.dk/labs/canvas2image/)

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Load datauri.html in Browse (attached to this ticket)
 2. Right-click on Text
 3. In the context menu, click Download

 Expected outcome: the URI gets downloaded to the Journal

 Actual outcome: nothing happens. Relevant traceback attached
