This is expected.  The only change we could make is not allowing the user to save chrome://downloads in the first place.  It's WebUI so it's using APIs that won't work when opened from a normal file path without the chrome:// scheme.

Closing as wont fix for now.  If people feel strongly we can reopen and look at removing the save as feature.  Although on current stable it looks like it saves as an mhtml file which does open to some degree.
