Title:
  Drag and drop creats a URL link and does not save the image

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In 11.10 if you run firefox and drag an image from the browser to
  either the desktop or Nautilus instead of the image you get a link to
  the image. The arrow turns to a hand with a link across it and a file
  is created like Link to "http://www.anysite.net/images/087782_1.JPG";.

  Where is this behaviour set ? in 11.04 the default was to copy the
  image.

  You can copy the image into oowriter and other programs, just not the
  desktop ot Link to Nautilus.

  I would expect the image to be downloaded and saved in the location
  required, instead you get a link to the location.
