ChangeLog info:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+log/56.0.2891.0..56.0.2894.0?pretty=fuller&n=10000

Suspecting: r425547 ? or r425743?

@raymes: Please help me to reassign this issue, if your change is not cause for it.

Note: Unable to narrow down the range as issue is not reproducible on chromium builds, hence providing suspect from changelog.

@Matt: is this the same as the issue you were showing us on Wednesday? If there is another bug for same thing already maybe merge the two?

I think this is expected. Flash is disabled by default. It will only get enabled after clicking the "download adobe flash" button and allowing the prompt (this is the HBD behavior)

However after I do that, the swf gets downloaded - that part seems like a bug.

+Georges as he has done more testing as well and can share an update.

IIRC, our initial plan was to show a 'play' icon or puzzle piece (right click to play) but it seems to have shifted to the 'download flash' prompt which IMO is not as intuitive for end users.

Re #4, the play icon will only show if there is no "fallback content" for the swf. Otherwise there will be a prompt. That's working as expected. You may want to chat with ericde@ if this approach is problematic but I'll mark this as WontFix for now.
