When a user wishes to download a file, the interface offers no clear way to do
so. Whilst most users know they can right click and download a file, not all
users will know this. The issue is further complicated when a user triies to
download an svg, because, depending on what thumbnail or image they right
click, they may instead obtain the generated png. I have seen numerous users
confused about the correct procedure to download an svg file. A simple
"download this file in its original format" link, under the main thumbnail on
the image description page would help to solve this.
