Content-Dispostion was implemented in Web browsers BEFORE it was added to the HTTP/1.1 spec, to document existing practice. It is indeed quite useful, when people are downloading code, to be able to provide a file name for "save as" to work. Dunno how widespread it was among MIME implementations at the time. - Jim
