Download Manager is slow (as marked by another bug) and some users might not
want to use it, but would prefer the old-style download dialogues.  Should be
option to select between the two of them.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download file
2. Download manager opens or nothing opens if you turn it off.
3. If you turn off download manager, old style download diaglogue should open

Actual Results:  
Nothing appears when you turn off download manager, yet system is still slowed down.

Expected Results:  
Old style download dialogue ( > .8) should have appeared.
