Description

[Timwi]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

In the Tools => Options dialog box, in the "Main" category, in the "Downloads" groupbox, there is a radio button labeled "Save files to:". The text box next to it remains greyed-out and read-only even if the radio button is checked.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Text box is greyed out and doesn't let user type in anything.

Expected Results:  
User should be able to type (or paste!) a path name into the box at least if the radio option next to it is checked.

It is not grayed out but you can only change the text with the Browse... button.
