When I set the "Main file directory" (Preferences->External Programs->Main file directory) to a directory that does not exist, then file download fails silently.
I can trigger the dowload, choose to save the file and everything looks fine in the UI, but no entry appears in the file field. Looking at the console, the following stack trace appears:

Perhaps we should change the preference setting in the UI. Currently, it is a text field and the user can enter arbitrary text instead of using the FileChooser. If we set it to a Label instead, the user has to select the directory via the FileChooser. Additionally, there should be some error message to the user if the storage of the file fails.
