Thanks for compiling that list!

We should write SlackBuilds to work with default settings though.  : ^)

Let's note the man page's explanation:

"""
‘--content-disposition’

If this is set to on, experimental (not fully-functional) support for
Content-Disposition headers is enabled. This can currently result in
extra round-trips to the server for a HEAD request, and is known to
suffer from a few bugs, which is why it is not currently enabled by
default.

This option is useful for some file-downloading CGI programs that use
Content-Disposition headers to describe what the name of a downloaded
file should be.
"""

I have a feeling this will eventually be default behavior.
