Ciao Tony

Yeah, that was my OP's query. Either with dialogue, or not.

PMario tells us that the cross-browser API's are not consistent enough to 
ensure it would work reliably.

It is frustrating that, lumbered with download saving already by browsers, 
attenuation to salvage a better approach is difficult. 
But the last thing you'd want is having to add hacks per browser. Would 
take you back to square one.

Polly is quite a good solution towards universalism on Desktop, though 
configuration can be quite complicated.
And, again, download naming is a limiting factor in that the download 
"bucket" can only handle ONE name at a time.

I think, though, it is worth noting that on mobiles (Quinoid, Quine, 
Tiddloid) it is a different kind of agenda on saving & it seems more 
intuitive. 
Likely because the mechanism is more hidden?

My two cents
