I use print to pdf since David pointed that as possibility to save web pages, 
but there is long discussion on Mozilla's bugzilla. I have no link, but it is 
in some of David's earlier complains on this new behavior. 

Current gives you always "mozilla.ps" as a file name, even when you come back 
to print dialog from the same Firefox session.

:-) 
That is a lot of work even for my small needs.

That is what I'm doing right now, but even that is not comfortable because the 
input field is too short for any practical file name length. Mine are in 
format:
  <vendor_name>-<type_of_file>-<date>.pdf
and input field is barely longer than
  mozilla.ps
I can't see whole name which doesn't help much when I want to change only 
date.
