Hello,

I read a lot of articles and I like to set my Firefox to open PDF files in qpdfview directly. That is working very well. However, It happen more frequently that I leave some PDF opened in qpdfview without saving them and of course they get lost when I clear Firefox history. I wish to suggest a new feature that qpdfview saves files under (maybe in ~/Downloads/qtemp) so that whenever Firefox exists and empty its cache and history one's does not lose the opened files in qpdfview. Currently all pdf files opened from Firefox directly into qpdfview are saved under /tmp folder. You cannot change this behavior in Firefox and I would think it is against security rules in Firefox. So I thought it might be a job that could be automated in qpdfview.

Best, Imad
