Example URL:
https://www.gdgmelbourne.com/#what-we-are-about

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Click a hyperlink URL that ends with something like `/#somefragment`.
2. Witness Chrome display File Viewer for file:///#somefragment, which displays the root directory of computer.
3. Wonder what just happened.

What is the expected behavior?
Clicking the hyperlink should make a GET request for the URL, subsequently display something to do with that request (success or failure) and not teleport to some other context.

What went wrong?
The browser seems to have got its wires crossed.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Could this be abused for social-engineering?
