When saving a gzipped tarball by right-clicking and selecting "Save to Disk" the
browser will unzip the tarball, but does not change the extention from .tar.gz
to .tar - at first, i thought the file was corrupt, but running the command
"file" revealed that *.tar.gz files saved by right-clicking were tar archives,
not gzips. manually changing the file name made it possibe to open the file.
However, left-clicking on the same file will save it as-is - still gzipped.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click on a link to a *.tar.gz file
2. Select "Save to Disk"
3. Running gzip, or any gui file archive program, will report the file is not a
valid gzip.
4. Change file name from *.tar.gz to *.tar and open file (for example, in
gnome's file-roller)
Actual Results:
The file will open.
Expected Results:
It should not unzip the file. Or if it does, it should change the extension.

Not a duplicate of bug 233047. That bug does not deal with right-clicking on
links. Probably a duplicate of bug 235859, though.
