I created #10682 to track the issue of opening the file browser.

Created #10676 for that. Assigned to tchou for the moment.

Created #10677 for that. Assigned to tchou as well.

Created #10678 for this one.

Created #10679 assigned to tchou who can probably solve the "???". If
you think that you should be the one to fix the 0 MiB glitch, comment on
there.

>>> 9. #verify-text-label should be visible once #download is visible. See

Created #10680 for this one.

And also #10681 for the MIME type thing.
