After more investigations, I was able to reproduce this issue on Firefox 27 RC too. It's highly intermittent and couldn't find a reliable regression window.
It's also reproducible with Firefox 18 (when Download manager button is first visible).
Please let me know how can I help further on.

I can no longer reproduce this issue on Windows 10 and Ubuntu 22 with Firefox 125.0b8, the download panel is displayed for multiple locales.
I'm going to close this bug as WFM.
