Bug#523993: epiphany-browser: Cancel button does nothing in dialog to choose app for text/x-patch downloads

Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.24.3-2
Severity: normal

Whilst browsing a recent bug report:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=523985

I attempted to view the patch attachment which the BTS claims as
text/x-patch.

Epiphany raised a dialog claiming it did not know how to open the file
although it didn't seem to have problems opening similar files before.

You have chosen to open       which is a:     form:    

There is a horizontal bar below the "Do this automatically" widget that
is too narrow to show any text but shows "Other" if clicked (although
nothing else happens) and the Cancel button does nothing at all.

To close the dialog, I had to use the window close button instead.

text/plain attachments appear unaffected, opening in the browser window.

application/pgp-signature inline fails.

text/x-diff also fails.

Strangely, attachments in bugzilla.gnome.org appear unaffected.

This is going to make using epiphany with the BTS really awkward.
