The default download location preference was changed (from desktop to /some/giant/path/downloads) when I upgraded to 3.5 . I was upgrading from whichever 3.n version came before 3.5. Since this is a incremental upgrade, and not a full version number upgrade, and my other prefs appear to be unchanged, it is at least unexpected behavior, if not an outright bug...

Reproducible: Didn't try

Works fine for me when updating Firefox Nightly 19 to the latest one - the set download location is not changed after update.
