This occurs in Firefox 3.0 in F-10 as well.  I don't recall if image
attachment in bugzilla opened directly before or not.  I know bugzilla
was updated not all that long ago, so it could have changed.  The http
headers do indicate that it's an attachment rather than an inline
image I believe (note the Content-disposition header):
