Possible to change "View image" behavior?

cor-el replied

On certain websites, when I right click an image and select "view image", Firefox attempts to download the image rather than displaying it because of the sites HTTP header. Is it possible to have Firefox just display the image that is already cached rather than have to go through this process?

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

There is an extension for saving images from the cache, but I don't think that there is one for the View Image item in the right-click context menu.
