Well, if he's /Downloading/ something (e.g. the latest *.tgz for some
sourcecode), one would imagine it's HIS $HOME (or at least $HOME of the
currently logged in user).  This is the default action in Iceweasel --
or, at least on my install it was.

Or have I missed something somewhere?  Seems the thread got broken
somewhere, so not 100% certain if this is the latest info ...
