Steps to reproduce:

  1. Navigate to a page supported by Orion's Reader Mode
  2. Save the page to either a .webarchive file or .html file
  3. Open the saved page in Orion
  4. Click the Reader Mode icon in the URL field

Expected behavior:
The reader mode should engage like it does for the online version, but nothing happens at all – not even the "reader mode is not supported on this page" popup appears.

For comparison Reader Mode works in both Safari & Firefox for local files (Chrome doesn't seem to expose a native reader mode equivalent without some chrome:// flags).
