Description

I use the picture widget on the dashboard to show a map of the network, of course the widget is too small so I click on it to get the image in full size when I need to.

But when I do that, the widget forces the download of the image as a file named "widget_image.picture-0", which makes no sense from a user perspective.

I think the file should at least use the name or extension of the uploaded file, so the file can be correctly opened as the image it is. And clicking on the picture widget should not force a download, but instead simply open a new tab directly linking the image, so the user can see it and still be able to download it with a right-click if needed.

Alternatively someone could make a fancy UI that shows the image in a pop-up without leaving the page, but unless there is an easy to implement JS library for that, I don't think this will happen anytime soon, so let's focus on the easier solution... :P

Also just in case I tested this in Vivaldi and Edge and both shows the same outcome, so this problem really comes from how the widget is coded rather than a browser specific behavior.

Thank you for your help!
