Exporting tables of non-org users always result in public.ext name

[rafatower]

How to reproduce:

• browse a public table of a non-org user. E.g: https://observatory.cartodb.com/tables/whosonfirst_region/public
• click on download
• choose a format. E.g: CSV

Expected: the name of the downloaded file is set to whosonfirst_region.csv or sth related to the exported table.

Actual: the downloaded file is set to public.csv.

The thing is that the Content-Disposition header sets the filename to public.csv:

$ curl -vv -X HEAD "https://observatory.cartodb.com/api/v2/sql?filename="public.whosonfirst_region"&q=SELECT+*+FROM+(select+*+from+public.whosonfirst_region)+as+subq+&format=csv&bounds=&api_key=&skipfields=the_geom_webmercator"
...
> HEAD /api/v2/sql?filename=public.whosonfirst_region&q=SELECT+*+FROM+(select+*+from+public.whosonfirst_region)+as+subq+&format=csv&bounds=&api_key=&skipfields=the_geom_webmercator HTTP/1.1

I rechecked the HEAD request to the URL and saw that the underscore is coming directly with the tablename in the Content-Disposition:

It seems that some browsers or tools (like Postman or Typhoeus) are doing these things. I see that if in the filename parameter of the URL you get rid of points and quotes, the name of the downloaded file is just "public", but the quotes are giving me _public or _public_ in Chrome, Typhoeus and Postman.

We can improve the name formatting for filenames but providing a different filename param with the desired name should do the trick, and that's something the client is controlling on this case.
