Collected research
Yes, you can have fun with downloads
Any document can navigate a non-same-origin window, and the target need not be HTML. Pointing it at a resource served with Content-Disposition: attachment leaves the victim window's address bar unchanged while a download prompt appears attached to it, so a fake flash11_updater.exe seems to come from adobe.com. All three major browsers were affected, sandboxed iframes included.
