 Recording video in Record creates a video object in the Journal.  Opening
 this object from inside Journal into Browse causes a download of this file
 to begin, instead of the file being opened.  The download creates a file
 in the datastore of a size identical to that previously generated by
 Record.  The downloaded file does not have the same icon in Journal as the
 video originally created by Record; instead, it has a binary-type icon.

 Instead of downloading and creating a copy, the Record-created object
 should start to play in Browse when opened.  Identical video data opened
 directly from the clipboard behaves correctly when opened: it plays
 instead of downloading.  The object created by adding the clipboard object
 to the journal (which, incidently, has a binary icon instead of a video
 icon) also opens correctly.  The "downloaded" file also plays correctly
 when opened; in spite of the fact that it seems identical (it has the same
 size as the file that causes the download, and plays the same video) it
 does not initiate a third download.

 Additionally, the ability should also exist to open these objects into
 Record as well as Browse.

 This bug seems somewhat related to what is happening to Browse in #5664.
