How to catch file download event in Firefox Extension?

Question

How to hook the download dialog in a Firefox extension?

I have developed a Download Accelerator and now want to create a Firefox Extension for it. What I need to know is when a file download is requested. I have read about the 'observer-service' events such as 'dl-start'. However, these events are fired after the default download dialog is displayed, I need to catch the download before the default.

Any suggestions?
