Currently one is required to install an add-on, but I think such basic functionality should really be built-in. I originally made this request here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1616994 But thought I should also do so upstream.

This was removed in an effort to avoid these dialogs, that were likely perceived as obtrusive, and it was replaced with the current animation in the Downloads button in the toolbar. Maybe we could consider reintroducing this if we had a different implementation, more integrated with the notifications offered by modern operating systems. However, it's unlikely that someone from design and engineering will be able to look at this in the short term. I'll leave the bug open for future reference, but we need a design decision before we can accept code patches.

Then we could pass that proposal through UX for evaluation.
