HTML 5 does provide a download attribute, with the following restrictions:
```
Can be used with blob: URLs and data: URLs, to make it easy for users to
download content that is generated programmatically using JavaScript (e.g. a
picture created using an online drawing Web app).
If the HTTP header Content-Disposition: is present and gives a different
filename than this attribute, the HTTP header has priority over this attribute.
If this attribute is present and Content-Disposition: is set to inline,
Firefox gives priority to Content-Disposition, like for the filename case,
while Chrome gives priority to the download attribute.
In Firefox 20 this attribute is only honored for links to resources with
the same-origin.
```
