When using browser.downloads.download() to start a download of a URL that has an empty path (e.g., https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-44.0.2-SSL&os=osx&lang=en-US), we end up creating a uniquified name for the downloads directory. For example, the default directory on macos is ~/Downloads, we end up writing the downloaded file to a file named ~/Downloads(1) instead of creating a name for the file inside the download directory.
