309037 - [Mac] Dragging proxy icon to desktop should use page title, not URL

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Copy & Paste and Drag & Drop, defect)

Description

[Hiro]

In Safari, when URL is drop to desktop, the location file name is a title of the
web page. 
But Firefox and Camino, it is not so. 

Firefox and Camino also think that the title of the web page is better of the
Web location file name like Safari. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open URL
2. URL drag and drop to desktop.

Actual Results:
Web location file name is url.
(ex. www.mozilla.org/)

Expected Results:
Web location file name is web page title.
(ex. Mozilla - Home of the Firefox web browser and Thunderbird e-mail client.webloc)

Camino already does this correctly in most cases (with the exception of bug 309226 and bug bug 188432, the latter broken only on 10.2 and 10.3), whereas Firefox never uses the title.  

Either we forked the drag code or this is handled in app-specific code (and thus should be a Fx bug).

This WFM in Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20090902 Minefield/3.7a1pre.  I'd guess Cocoa drag/drop rewrite fixed this, but dunno.
