Full ACK.

Same here. This is nuts. For several years I managed a large network from a poorly connected remote office. My typical method for IOS upgrades was (and still is) to navigate to the point of being ready to download the needed image from the web site, then do the actual download using wget on our server (via an SSH session) where we actually store/serve images.

Downloading IOS images to my workstation (whereever it may be) makes no sense.
