[Bug 208704] [NEW] Loosing destination display using "save as" and removable media

[Jeremy]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Description:	Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release:	8.04

firefox:
  Installé : 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
  Candidat : 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
 Table de version :
 *** 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

When I do "save as" and select a removable media a destination to
download the file, firefox remembers well this destination for the next
time we want to save something. But the second time I want to save
something using the right click button and the "save as" menu. The
previous used destination is preselected in the dialog box. But when
this destination is a removable media, its name, let say "USBKEY"
disappears immediately and let a blank instead of "USBKEY" in the dialog
box.

If we don't select again the destination "USBKEY", firefox still save the file there. The bug is only in displaying the name of the previous destination, and
it only occurs when this destination is a removable media. I only tried with the live CD but I tried with different removable media, usb key, external hard disk on different computer. The behaviour of Firefox dialog window is always the same, and replace the previously used destination by a blank when this
destination is a removable media.
