1016373 - The save dialog should remember the folders per domain

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: Downloads API, defect)

Description

[FGRibreau]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.114 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a web app, click on a link that generates a document to save
2. Save the document inside a directory (the "invoice" directory if you are using an invoice app for instance)
3. Open another web app (a photo editor), click on save
4. The save dialog opens the invoice directory, so you select another directory (for picture directory for instance)
5. Open the invoice web app, click on a link that generates the document 


Actual results:

The save dialog opens inside the "picture" directory when it should be the "invoice" directory (a.k.a "domain-aware save dialog")


Expected results:

The save dialogs opens inside the "invoice" directory.

This isn't a Cocoa widgets bug.  Cocoa widgets doesn't (and shouldn't) know about web apps, and so can't store any per-web-app information.

I don't know where this bug should go.  Web Apps, maybe?

FGRibreau, are you talking about web apps that you've installed on your system or they're web apps that you've opened in Firefox itself?

@Marco I am talking about web apps (SaaS for instance) opened in a tab in Firefox. 
If I save something from Facebook (inside my picture directory for instance) and another thing from Youtube (inside my video directory) the next time I want to save something on facebook the save dialog should open my picture directory and not my video directory.

OK, so "Web Apps" isn't the right component.

Let's try downloads panel then.

[Marco Castelluccio [:marco]]

Downloads Panel is probably unrelated too, Download Manager looks the right component to me.

[:Gijs (he/him)]

This is the default behaviour these days (and has been for a long time). If there are issues where it doesn't work (cf. bug 1822730) then new bugs are probably more appropriate.
