It's "download this resource". E.g. if you click on a "download" link  
in browser, the client (such as Safari) still needs to decide whether  
to open the referenced resource in a Web page, or to download it. It  
can also ask the user whether to download, and if the user refuses,  
the client tells WebKit to cancel the request.
