Describe the issue you encountered:
When visiting about:downloads, I saw the file I had downloaded, but no visible means to interact with the item. I had to guess that a context menu existed.

Expected behavior:
The system should display available interactions with the items which were downloaded.

  • Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?):
    Tested on OS X
  • Brave Version:
    0.11.6 pre-beta2
  • Steps to reproduce:
    1. Download some items.
    2. Visit about:downloads.
  • Screenshot if needed:
