 Sometimes, when I select a link to a PDF file, the file appears
 within the SeaMonkey window, appearently using the nppdf32.dll
 plugin.  Other times, the Download Manager is launched; and the file
 is eventually displayed within a separate Adobe Reader window.

 Why does this lack of consistency occur?
 (...)

 It depends from the reported MIME type and or the Content-Disposition
 header, the least.  If the reported MIME type is not appropriate
 SeaMonkey may fail to identify the response as PDF therefore allowing
 you only to download it.  If the Content-Disposition header specifies
 value of 'attachment' (w/o the quotes) SeaMonkey will pop a download
 dialog no matter of the content type and whether there is plug-in
 registered to handle it inside the browser.

 
 Is there a way to force download dialog for *ALL* PDF links?

Remove the adobe plugin. (see about:plugins)

Martin

You could disable the automatic plugin scan for the Adobe Reader 
plug-in:


http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Disabling_the_automatic_plugin_scan

user_pref(plugin.scan.Acrobat, 10);

And you could configure your Adobe Reader to not display PDF in browser:

Edit - Preferences: Categories: Internet:

_Web Browser Options_

[ ] Display PDF in browser
