In previous versions of Firefox Mobile, I was able to long press on an image or video file and "Save Link". This no longer seems to be an option. I would like very much to once again be able to do so. I have looked through the settings, and about:config to find no solution.

This isn't working on my new Nexus 4 with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, but was also not working on my HTC Glacier with Android Ice Cream Sandwich.
