Changing desktop-folder doesn't change the Firefox-download-folder

Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

I changed my sytem language to French, so my desktop-folder wasn't ~/Desktop anymore but ~/Bureau. This was a change made by Ubuntu itself, but it didn't change the Firefox-download-folder. Files are still downloaded to ~/Desktop. Is that a bug or should this desktop-changing not change the Firefox-config? In that second case consider checking if the download-folder ist Desktop and change it if it ist.
Regards.

Sorry but Firefox-2 is getting near EOS and they wont be fixing anything but major issues security issues mainly. Please try to reproduce this with Firefox-3.0 if you can reproduce this bug please click on Help > Report a problem and file the bug that way. This does not mean that it wasn't already fixed.
