On behalf of the epiphany team, I'd like to state that:

a) We agree that some functionality is still missing in the downloader. 
This includes among others the ability to resume downloads between 
sessions and handling downloading from external apps without launching 
the browser.

b) Some advanced functionality offered by gwget is clearly out of the 
scope of epiphany core. Gwget is however already offering an epiphany 
extension for those who want to have it available.

The currently open download bugs can be viewed here:

We encourage a discussion about which functionality the community would 
like to see in epiphany for the 1.6 release which will coincide with 
GNOME 2.10.

regards,
