When trying to save a file from a link in Fx3 betas the filename is cleared if I select one of my bookmarked locations (Places section of save window). It doesn't happen with all file types, but it especially happens with PDFs, tar.gz, and some image formats.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a web page and find a link that contains a file you want to download. Specifically find a PDF or tar.gz file.
2. Right click on the link and select "Save as..."
3. In the Save As window select a different directory by using one of your bookmarked Places
Actual Results:  
The filename field is cleared

Expected Results:  
The filename provided by the web page should remain while you continue selecting a directory to save it in

My computer is running Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon" with GNOME 2.20.1 running the 2.6.22-14-generic kernel
