It seems unlikely that we will ever have the ease of saving via a plugin again. So bandages are all we are likely to have. Each bandage has its own problems and advantages.
My suggestion is the least bandage-like solution available because it uses the native download mechanism, which is likely to be around as long as viable browsers are around. It uses 6 lines of easily understood code. With tiddly desktop you have to run and install a separate executable just to enable a javascript program to run. The method I suggested doesn't require an executable, or a server running in the background. I'm sure that it could be adapted for linux, if there's interest. I believe Apple also has a batch/script system available. Further down the road, an Android program could be written to do a similar thing on those devices that don't block file saving in non-app assigned locations.
