Clicking download for the files does not result in a download popup #9

As the app has control of both server and frontend, should make use of the "download" html5 attribute on the a tag, as well as HTTP response headers like:

Content-Type: application/octet-stream Content-Disposition: attachment

To force the file to show a download dialog

This issue can't be fixed because we are using the firebase API-SDK to download the files and the Content-Type is managed by the API and not by the client app.

Exists a hack-code to fix this requirement but only works in Google Chrome

Google cloud storage supports adding content type to objects, like images. Would this not work?
