How to occasionally choose download location?

I'm generally happy for my downloads to all go into the same Downloads folder but occasionally I want to redirect it elsewhere. It would be cool if there was a keyboard button I can press while clicking on a link so that I get to choose where it downloads to on those occasions. Is there such a key?

I'm not aware of a way to do this with basic Firefox. You can search the Addons website to see if there is an extension available with this feature. Otherwise you would have to toggle the setting in Options/Preferences.
