Seems useful, but do we need to worry about special characters, like if I send someone a link to a dump url with filename=../im_in_ur_homedir.lol what will a browser do?

Also users can choose any file name they like when downloading, so what's the the original problem this is trying to solve? Is this because the default is missing a file extension?

This was for a Recombinant feature to dump CSVs for some admin purposes and data migrations. it just allowed for Recombinant to dump the file as <org name>.<resource name>

And yeah, probably should strip out special characters

Newline characters are definitely bad in the filename. That would let an attacker insert their own headers in the response from the server.
