How to open pdf in chromedriver 2.15 without downloading it

Question

I recently upgraded to Chromedriver 2.15

Now, when I click on the link to the pdf file, it is automatically loaded, and not displayed on a new tab, as before.

<a id="my_pdf_file" format="pdf" target="_blank" href="/my_pdf_file.pdf">My PDF File</a>

Is there a way to resume the old pdf display behavior in a new tab?

This is currently a problem with Chrome, not with Chromedriver:

At some point between M41 and M42, the behavior of the -test type switch was changed so that PDF files load instead of displaying.
