Actually, in an idea world, the file chooser would already have set the
file name to the document's title. The problem is that very often, documents
from the Web (and thus their window) have weird names, and people need
to have a look at the text to copy (manually or by pasting) the real
title themselves. In my experience, it especially happens with PDFs.
