I would love to see a button or a way to change the name of the file youre downloading easily. Either before or after download. Like the button in "Video download Helper extension".  Would be very useful as one downloads lots of files and they all have random names, and yeah, it would be nice.

@Tyrush4k : go to Menu -> Settings -> Downloads
Turn on "Ask where to save files before downloading"
Turn on "Ask to open or save files" at the bottom

Firefox will then ask you if you want to Save or Cancel for each file download
When you click Save, a file window opens and you can rename it before it gets saved

@dftf No not this. this is not the same. i mean like in the download pop up menu of your recently downloaded in top right. if there was a simple button there to let you change the name of the file you just downloaded, or if one could simply double click on the name of the file there and it will let you type in the name you want. 

One who downloads muchknows that a box popping up everytime is not optimal. and choosing where to save and such, no. 

If you have the extension "video download helper", you know what im talking about.
