Printing a webpage to a postscript file in a directory where the user
does not have write privileges gives no feedback that the operation
failed.  No file is created, and no Permission Denied warning message
occurs.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any webpage.
2. Go to File-Print
3. Select PostScript/default and the Print to File checkbox, then print.
4. When prompted for the filename, select a directory where you don't have 
write permission (e.g. /).
Actual Results:  
It goes through the motion of printing to file, but no file is created and no 
warning message occurs.

Expected Results:  
The program should prompt the user immediately that permission is denied.

This worked with the XUL filepicker, but it seems we ignore failure when
using the gtk filepicker.

IOW, a workaround would be setting ui.allow_platform_file_picker to
false in about:config?

A better workaround would be to save to a location that is writable :)

Of course, but this bug is all about getting no error when you thought
it was writable, and it fact it isn't. :-)
