image is already shown in the tab, but when I Save-As it, it starts to download again in Downloads manager. That's not right and was not in Firefox 1.5.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. load an image
2. press Ctrl-S (on win)
3. look how the shown image is downloaded again (huge image or slow connection will help)


Expected Results:  
the image shold be saved from tab (cache) not the net again.

there was no such a problem in 1.5 version

I see this problem too. One thing I noticed is that those images who download again doesn't show their size on properties, it says that the file is not on cache. The problem here is not redownloading but the fact that sometimes (seems random to me) it doesn't go to cache.
