Description

The Issue

When downloading a lot of content at the same time there's no convenient way to check the progress of each download. You'd have to make a mental note of the content you are currently downloading and then go to each individual claim to see the progress.

Suggested Solutions

A downloads button similar to what you can find Firefox and other browsers would make it a lot easier to check the status of your ongoing downloads.
