Hmmmpff...

I tried again (under openSUSE 11.2):
GIMP-2.6 (git 2009-09-28) saves a PNG file via GIMP's PNG dialog if I 
use GNOME and file manager Nautilus.
GIMP-2.7 (git 2009-10-27) saves it as "Unbenannt.xcf" 
(="Untitled.xcf") with GNOME & Nautilus.

Nothing happens with either Konqueror-4.3.5, Firefox-3.6.0, or 
KDE-4.3.5.
But I found the string "File name for dropped contents:" in 
/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/libkonq.mo (kde4-l10n-de-4.3.5), so 
it looks that this dialog window is Konqueror-specific.

If the behaviour really depends on desktop manager, browser / file 
manager, GIMP version, and more(?), shouldn't we then just write

	"... You can [...] click and drag this thumbnail to an enabled XDS
	file manager to directly save the corresponding image." 
	(period; no screenshot),

especially since we don't which dialog window a user will see?
