The only case when FireFox does not do that: if you are trying to "Save Link Target As...". In this case, FireFox is always propose you a basename of URL instead of propagated "filename" parameter. This is especialy annoing when working with FireFox-viewable MIME types such as images and text, transfered via some CGI interface. to figure the problem out, just try to "Save As" any text attachment from the Bugzilla. You'll be asked for "attachment.cgi" filename instead of file name defined in bugzilla. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. go to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312042 2. scroll to any attached patch 3. try to right-click attachment name and choose "Save Link As.." Actual Results: Appeared dialog offers you an "attachment.cgi" as a filename Expected Results: Should offer the actual filename, transfered is HTTP header Also, this affects Linux and Win32 version. Not sure about Mac & others but suppose so.

In Mozilla 1.7.6 (not Firefox) this works as intended. I.e. I click the link for patch of 2006-01-04 10:09 PST and "012throwables.t.v4.diff" is suggested as filename. So IMHO a fix for Firefox should be trivial.
