While I never experienced this issue myself (being a longtime BSD/Linux user) I reported this issue on behalf of recent windows "switchers" who encountered it. Such users aren't accustomed to the deletion of tmp files (in particular openoffice documents) without warning, so it seems problematic that files can so easily be downloaded to, opened from and saved to this location.
