88048 - [RFE] Ability to set the default action to "Save to Disk"

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 80557

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[William Stuart]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.1+)
Gecko/20010625
BuildID:    2001062504

When I click on a file with a known MIME type, specifically,
application/x-zip-compressed.  I would like to always download this to disk, not
start up the associated program.  Clicking "Set Default" doesn't give me the
option to "Save to Disk".  I think it should.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Click on a file of a know mime type.
2.Dialog appears asking if you want to launch an app, save to disk, or something
else.
3. Clicking on "Set Default", doesn't enable the ability to "save to disk" by
default.

Actual Results:  See Above

Expected Results:  See above

This is probably a dupe, but I couldn't find it.  It probably has some cryptic
title like:  XPblahblahblah not selectbale from NsFooBarBaz...  :)

This bug has already been reported.  A query for Summary: "save to disk" (no
