Hi,
It's probably been this way for a long time, but I noticed with beta8 that firefox defaults to automatically save to the desktop rather than the home folder or some other location. It seems to me that this is a quick way to clutter the desktop, and for users who are unfamiliar with firefox, it might be difficult to find where to change that default behavior.
Maybe it is this way on purpose because of the "usability studies" (have you seen any of them? Where do they get those people?!), but it seems like there would be something better.
FYI: In 10.0 GNOMEs screen shot utility does the same. Maybe it was intended as a reminder to clean up your desktop after work ;-)
It is always nice to have things saving in directories I do not use, like Desktop. :-/ houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit. Leben ist aber mehr als Werk und Arbeit, und das Sein wichtiger als das Tun - Johannes Müller-Elmau
