I don't understand the purpose of this preference - it doesn't seem  
to be settable by the UI,
is apparently on by default and I don't think that what it does makes  
sense.

The result is that when I download from a URL, I get an open document  
with no connection to a file, no proxy icon. It's not dirty, even  
though I have to save it if I want to know where it is.

Is that preference ever off?

The way I see it, there are two choices for how this feature ought to  
work:
1. Like a browser: it assumes you want to keep the file, so it saves  
it somewhere you know about and then just opens it as a regular file.

2. Or: it assumes you don't want to keep the file, downloads it to / 
tmp, and sets the dirty bit so you know you have to save it somewhere  
to keep it. It should also have the proxy icon so you can drag it to  
the finder.

#1 is what I expected, but it currently does mostly #2.

Thanks,
