776343 - Annoying "Download save path" behaviour - path jumping between several folders

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[jim]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1
Build ID: 20120713134347

Steps to reproduce:

I save many .MP3 files from the same web-page. They all have URL pointing to the same domain in the form "domain.com/get/id-hash", but since it is a huge file storage I do realize that the files may be coming from different web-servers.


Actual results:

Whatever my "Tools -> Options -> General -> Downloads" settings are, "save to" path is annoyingly jumping between several folders I used to save files some time ago.


Expected results:

If I set "Save files to:" in "Tools -> Options -> General -> Downloads", the "Save to" path in the dialog box MUST BE always the one I set.

If I set "Always ask me where to save files", then "Save to" path in the dialog box MUST BE always the last one I saved file to. Ok, there MAY BE different pathes for different extensions, but if I saved file "track1.mp3" into "D:\mp3\" all subsequent savings (track2.mp3, track3.mp3, best_music.mp3 etc.) MUST initially point into this very folder where I saved track1.mp3.
