Sorry, haven't had much of a chance to relook at this.  Here's my  
latest findings:

Mac OS X 10.4.1, Firefox 1.0.4 (Gecko/20050511) and Slogger 0.5.11

Yes, still exists.  And I tried File->Save As and yes it's making the  
extra requests as well.

So I searched through Bugzilla, but all manner of search terms either  
returned no hits or 200 hits.  I finally went over to the #firefox  
IRC channel and asked there.  Apparently it's a known bug, but it has  
been fixed and should be folded into the 1.1 release.  No word on  
whether or not the fix might find its way into a nightly build.

And no one in the channel at that moment could provide me with the  
exact bug number.  Sorry.
