When downloading a file and choosing "open" as opposed to "save" file, the file always downloads to the desktop, regardless of the directory set for file downloads.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select any file to download
2. When the download dialogue box pops up, select open file then ok
3. The file always downloads to the desktop, even when a different directory is selected
Actual Results:  
The file always downloads to the desktop, even when a different directory is selected

Expected Results:  
The file should always download to the directory selected when either choosing to save or open the file

Using the add on "download status bar" however, tested results without add on, and same results occurred.
