How do you want to have them returned?

The browser expects a HTTP reply from Squid in a format that makes
sense. The only format browsers know to parse into links the user can
click on to receive the actual files is HTML.

Sure, Squid could return the FTP directory listing as text/plain, but
then you would need to manually enter the URL for each file you want to
visit as the browser will then just display the directory listing as
text/plain as if it was a text file.
