As of build 77.0.189.3 - just downloaded 6/19/2019 AM - I am still seeing the same behavior - I still get "Save As" dialog box to download the PDF.

If I attempt the "Open File" on the downloaded file at the bottom of the browser I get another "Save As" dialog with the (1) suffixed file name for another copy.

 

Edge Dev still does not open PDF files.
