Hang on... isn't the mechanism for this already available via the "type" attribute?

For example:

<a href="/path/to/image.jpg" type="image/jpeg">Full size image</a>

That wouldn't help in this case...

A browser could offer a preference setting, for example:

"Always download the following types of files, rather than opening in the browser:

* images        [x]
* movies                [  ]
...etc."

Yes, but that wouldn't help since I want to force downloads regardless
of the browser settings. Maybe it would do if the type was set to
application/octet-stream, since those, by default, always get downloaded.
