Will Jolla fix file browsing and in-file search in the browser?

When I browse the local file system, the browser downloads files already on my Jolla to the downloads directory. This is a neat way to duplicate files but unfortunately not what I need the browser to do. Please enable me to make local files open the program linked to their mimetype, like PDFs in the Document viewer (when it has been installed).

Otherwise, please let me filter webpages by regular expression so instead of getting the whole about:config pages (which involves metres of swishy hand movements to navigate), for example, I can get to where I need, assuming I know what to look for.

This could be implemented as s:/*/ uri to search text and attributes, s://sub/ urito do substitution, andx:// urito search the markup tagnames as well (the whole content). This could runsed` by link on the uri (local or net) and display the result.

This is not a duplicate.
