285661 - need to have a feature wherein the browser asks me if an application needs to be installed one-time

Description

[Prashant TR]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1

Right now, when I try downloading the google toolbar, for instance, it pops up a
message at the top which says that the site is trying to install an application.
To download that, when I click on the edit options, I need add that site to the
list whitelisted sites and later go back to the same and remove it.

It would be good to have a feature where the user can do a one-time
download/install from a site without having to add it to the list (and removing
it later).

Thanks,
Prashant


Reproducible: Always
