Use Windows standard Save dialog

Free Download Manager version 5.1 is sleek, but it still doesn't address my worst pet peeve: it doesn't use Windows' standard Save dialog (one of the reasons my favorite download manager is still that old abandonware one, you know which... it does use that). There are many advantages to that, but particularly three: (1) it's a standard procedure which everyone is more familiar and more efficient using; (2) easy selection of folder and file name in only one operation, if you don't want to use the defaults (I rarely do); (3) easier to select a previously existing older version and rename it before downloading. I often have to open Windows Explorer just to copy names of folders and files, as that's faster than using the provided control. Please consider this for a future version.
