Save PDF when PDF plugin is disabled

Reported by yuriko...@gmail.com, Mar 12 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Set option for content plugins to ask before launch
2. Open link to any PDF.

What is the expected behavior?
To download of PDF and allow to open it in external program.

What went wrong?
Chrome still tries to use internal PDF plugin and asks for permission, showing annoying gray window with mosaic.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 49.0.2623.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0
 
Components: -UI Internals>Plugins>PDF
Hmm, but never got triaged. :( Is this still a problem?

It's broken now, but in new way. I had disabled all content plugins in settings, but PDF are still opened in internal PDF viewer.

You may have to disable the Chrome PDF Viewer from chrome://plugins instead.

And the settings have changed again. chrome://plugins is no more and Settings > Content Settings now has a specific checkbox for PDF behavior. Can you check and see if that does what you want?
