FileEntry.toURL() not working – or the tizen browser not capable of filesyste:file://Persistent

FileEntry.toURL() not working – or the tizen browser not capable of filesyste:file://Persistent

If I download a html file onto the persitence service it is not loadable into the webapp browser. This does neither work with entry.fullPath nor with entry.toURL(), which return the same value, entry being a html5 FileEntry.

The location presented is something like

filesystem:file:///Persistent/file.html

Cutting off filesyste: and make it file:///Persistent/file.html does not work, unsurprisingly. Any ideas?

I tried both the default browser of the webapp and an iframe. Neither works.
