Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

When I click on a link to an architecture-dependent package (_amd64.deb,
_i386.deb) I get a dialog which suggests to open the file with Software
Center, but if I click on an architecture-independent package (_all.deb)
it is considered a file type which is never heard about, suggesting to
simply save it or to browse for a program in the local file system. Also
architecture-independent DEB packages should be installable with
Software Center by simply clicking them.

This should be simple to fix and it should not break anything, so it
could still be done for Natty.
