When I download a file, I would like to remind (at least) where this file come
from and when it was downloaded. This meta information might/should be within
the file.
Perhaps the donwloaded files should be wrapped within an XML structure?

Note: This should really be part of the OS, but as I would like it to be cross
platform, perhaps mozilla could provide something for that...
