Download manager is useful for more complicated scenarios and "power

How about supporting BitTorrent downloads transparently? The currently
popular graphical bt frontends are decidedly non-GNOMEish.
There's a bug open about BitTorrent support in the Epiphany download
manager, but it's unlikely that that will ever be added, as BitTorrent
requires the download window to stay open after the download has
completed (since it will function as a seed from that point on).
