I think it's easier to drag-and-drop from the Downloads folder to where I want to save it, than to dig through a Save dialog to find the folder I want to save something in. So it's less work whether or not you want to put your download somewhere long-term.

The download folder can still be the default, and all you'd have to do is to press "save" if you're okay with the default.

It's a shame they never made a Shift+Click type feature (or something like that) for downloads - like a modifier or menu option that forces the Save As dialog.
