Title:
  "Always do this from now on" does not work

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Confirmed
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  New
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Downloading an unknown file type in Firefox displays a dialog for choosing which application to use for opening the file.
  The dialog contains a check box labelled "Always do this action from now on".
  Checking this option does not work: When I download a file of the same type next time, the same dialog is displayed again.

  This feature is broken for as long as I can remember (> 10 years).
  It's time it was fixed (or removed).
