Actual results: The download instantly breaks. Only a 0kb file appears with the correct name. Expected results: The file should be downloaded correctly.

The thing is, it seems like permission errors might not necessarily imply that moves will fail but copies will work... OTOH maybe it's worth trying and we could still give up after the copy fails... Triage suspects the downloads code is probably using OS.File, so moving there first, though it's possible that the XPCOM nsILocalFile unix implementation also needs changing.

I can save and read files in there. However, for Firefox - all downloads fail and it says only "download failed" and offers a button to retry which fails again. After a failed attempt, a file is created with a proper file name but no content (0 bytes). When I changed the download dir to a different non-fscrypted folder, everything works properly and files do get properly saved. I switched to Chromium and Chromium has no problems downloading files into any dirs, regardless encrypted or not.
