Description

Would propose to view files in /keybase folders in formats of [PDF - Portable Document Format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF), [ODF - OpenDocument](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument) directly in Keybase (in all platforms) as these are open formats and widely used. Currently TXT-files already can be viewed - very good. HTML and other markup language files also but these are broken (character encoding not properly detected).

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing TXT viewing behavior and the currently broken HTML and markup rendering in the Keybase client. Determine how PDF and ODF files should be displayed across all platforms, including character encoding handling, and define completion as direct viewing of both formats with correct rendering.
