When you download a file from the web, on Mac OS X, both Safari & Chrome add info - where this file came from.
Firefox (as of 3.6.3) lacks this ability.

Being modern browser, it shouldn't lag behind in this department as well.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Adds no extra information

Expected Results:  
Should add "where from" to indicate source URL.

Would be nice also, to have file date and time set to actual file date and time - not the current time - when file was downloaded.
Safari does it correctly.

Here's a screen-shot to illustrate the problem: http://drp.ly/10tI3Q
