           Summary: better handling of filenames if download name changes
                    due to redirections
           Product: kget
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kget at kde.org
        ReportedBy: volkmar.woerner at gmx.de


Version:           2.2.60 (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

If I enter a download URL in kget directly, kget offers the website filename as
destination filename. If the URL contains a redirection, the destination
filename won't anymore be the original filename.
In the firefox extension DownThemAll! the destination filename will be renamed
if possible. This should be the default behaviour for kget too.


For example I have the URL http://vloeck.de/ul/vogel.php and want to save the
download with kget, I get as destination "/some/folder/vogel.php". The above
mentioned PHP-File is a redirection to http://vloeck.de/ul/vogel.jpg, which
gets saved to "/some/folder/vogel.php" though it is a jpeg image file
