NS 4.x put files in the cache with their extensions. As an example, if I visited
Flash enhanced site, and wanted to save this animation for later viewing, I
could search my hard drive for *.swf to find the file I seeked in the NS 4.x
cache. I think mozilla should behave this way, it would make things easier than
having a bunch of files without any extension in the cache. It would also
probably fix the problem encountered while loading a wav file(using Netscape
Liveaudio plugin) from the mentioned URL. It gives me a "unknown extension on
file c:\windows\mozilla\profiles\coch\n9r4uj7e.slt\cache\c668f78ed01" error.

Fixing this could also cure the problem where no extension is saved when I
specify the filename to save in the "save file" dialog.

It might be better to use an extension matching the mime type given by the
server (cf bug 31519, Save as: should add extension to match content type).

[RFE] is deprecated in favor of severity: enhancement. They have the same meaning.
Severity: minor → enhancement
