[Bug 330826] [NEW] Firefox Useability issue

[akgraner]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

The "other" operating systems they have a downloads folder, why doesn't
Ubuntu?  It would be really nice if 1) there was already one created and
if 2) Firefox was preconfigured to put downloads into this folder.
"Other" Operating systems already  do this.  This would ease the
transition for people moving to Ubuntu.

It was really confusing to me after using a Mac not to see a downloads
folder at least.  I did not realize that it automatically put the
downloads on the desktop. After hunting for the downloads (which were
covered by the windows I had open), I found them on the desktop, very
frustrating. It would also be nice to see the button that says see where
download is located. (Which I can do on my Mac)   I figured it out
though.  On the Mac I didn't have to worry about this.  There was a
downloads folder and Safari just puts stuff there.
