I am evaluating DS for our internal use and generally like what I see. However, I find the folder and filename selection mechanism in the Add Job dialog box both odd and inefficient. I'd rather see the separate Folder and Filename boxes replaced by a standard Windows "Save As" dialog box like some other download managers (specifically DAP and GetRight) do.

With a Save As box, I can properly view the filenames of existing files in the target folder before starting the download, allowing me to rename files according to, for instance, the version number of the app I am downloading. Without this, management of download filenames is messy and time consuming - after finishing a download, I have to navigate to the target folder and prune filenames after the fact.

It would be possible to implement a "Save As" button that would allow you to view the existing files in the download location and then select an appropriate filename, we will consider adding this to a future version of DownloadStudio.
