bug#28503: 25.3; buffer-file-name returns nil in eww-pdfs

M-x eww
(navigate to a pdf, I found this by searching "pdf test page"): 
http://www.orimi.com/pdf-test.pdf

then eval (buffer-file-name)

For me, it returns nil even though the pdf is a file on my computer (somewhere 
in /tmp for me).

It would be nice if this returned the actual path; I am trying to write a 
different function that will copy the pdf file elsewhere on my computer.

Thanks!
