Default How can I make all D/L go to SD card?

Does anyone know how I make all my downloads go to the root of my SD card and not internal storage?

On AOKP using the AOSP browser, there is no option in any of the settings menus.

Use Directory Bind to bind the download folder to the root of the SD card.

Directory bind doesn't actually change the location it just creates a shortcut to it. The moment directory bind is shut of or if the card is removed the files well no longer be accessible from the sdcard.

Using this method, you might as well move the files from internal to external using a file manager. More effective than using temporary mapping.

Opera Mobile will ask which directory prior to downloading the file.
