      The warning message should be changed in the "JNLP File/Mime" Association replace warning dialog should be changed.

      In earlier releases the cached JNLP file will be displayed in that dialog. So that atleast user can get some details about the which application's association is getting replaced.

      But after the new unified download engine, the JNLP filename is converted to a different file name. So the user can't make out which Application's association is getting replaced.

      More over this will confuse the user.

      To reproduce this

      1. Launch this application first http://cheran.india.sun.com:8080/JAWSTestsNew/association/association_test.jnlp
      2. Grant permission for "JNLP File/Mime" type association warning dialog
      3. Then launch this application
      http://cheran.india.sun.com:8080/JAWSTestsNew/association/association_test_dup.jnlp
      4. Now you will get JNLP File/Mime association warning dialog, in that dialog you can see the cached file name displayed in the command. You can't make out which application's association is getting replaced.

      So instead of displaying the file name in the cache, the application's details should be displayed in the dialog.

      See the attached screen shot for more details.
