Download progress dialogs no longer show details.
Just transferred so far, and time.
It used to show speed, which I miss greatly, it is enormessly useful in
keeping track of how my conection is doing.

If you use the "Download Manager", that has a column for speed (you might need to add it by clicking the down-arrow at the right-hand end of the column headings). Using the Download Manager can be selected in the preferences under Edit > Preferences > Browser > Downloads. The "Progress Dialog" doesn't seem to show the speed though.

If in restoring them the ability to see sizes in bytes could be added,
it would be greatly appreciated.

As far as I can see, both the progress dialog and Download Manager show the total size. Whether that can actually be shown before the download is complete depends on the server you're downloading from including the size in the response headers - some just don't, and sometimes data is generated on-the-fly so the server might not know in advance how big it will be. Or were you specifically wanting to see the size in bytes as opposed to KB/MB even for larger files? I don't think there's an option for that, though I may be wrong.

The other oddity is that 'save image' & 'save page as' are no longer
consistently keeping the destinations I set.
Sometimes they work, others they do not, no real pattern so far.

I'm not sure offhand about saving the page or images, but certainly the last-used location for downloads is remembered on a per-site basis. That can get a bit confusing if downloads are automatically redirected to one of several mirrors (like SourceForge do), since the actual domain you're downloading from might change from one download to another, and the default destination will depend on which mirror you get redirected to for each individual download. That may or may not be relevant to what you're seeing.

I should note that I have NOTHING in my user profile that I can put
elsewhere, even my SM profile is placed elsewhere.
Everything on 'C:' is disposable, nothing of any value what so ever goes
there at all.

That shouldn't be a problem as far as I'm aware.
