When downloading a file, the download manager displays a confirmation box saying
"--blank-- is a file type --blank--", the --blank-- meaning empty space.  When
download is complete, the original filename is lost, and Firefox saves it as
"unknown".  Occurs in the 10/22 nightly build.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a file to download
2. Problem manifests itself as a dialog box with missing elements
3. Saved file is named "unknown"

Actual Results:  
1. Selected a random file to download
2. Gave a dialog box with missing fields, (eg. name of file and MIME-type)
3. File was saved and named "unknown"

Expected Results:  
File should have been named as intended.
