That's the intended behavior, since 'ebrowse' the program produces
files named by default EBROWSE, and that mode was programmed for those
files.
OK to close this bug?
Wouldn't it be better to check that the file is infact a "ebrowse"
file using a file local variable though? And default to "text" if the
file in question is empty?
