Is it possible to download and add a passbook from a webview?

I have a news ios app with a webview. In the webview I display the news items and a banner. When you click the banner I want to open a url to a .pkpass file and add it to my passbook. Instead I get a FrameLoadInterrupted error and nothing visible happens.

If I open the url from safari this works fine, chrome, since earlier this week (version 23) also opens the url like intended.

Is this some weird strategy from Apple maybe? not allowing this MIME type to properly open from a webview? Will it be added later? Will every app with a webview need a rewrite to support the .pkpass downloads?
