I believe installation from webbrwoser was working before
In fact, I distinctly recall in Chinook that I was able to simply 'click' on my 'deb' file links for software that I had created (in the browser), and the application manager would automatically open for an install i.e. I never had to 'pre-save' the file and re-open it with the file manager.

Also, now that I have to do a 'save-as' first, I noticed that the full file names are not being suggested as the 'save' name i.e. 'xxx.all.deb' is being prompted for a 'save name' of 'xxx.all'.
