Hi,

I was just admiring a mockup demo of download integration in the panel:

It got me thinking about the panel applet in GNOME for Epiphany. A few thoughts:

* It seems overkill to have a popup window to manage downloads. I think this panel applet solution is much more elegant, minimally invasive and less clicks (see point 2)

* Currently viewing the download progress window requires a rightclick>selectoption sequence. Upon rightclick, there is only one option offered. The dropdown menu with only one option seems redundant.

* Feedback about downloads feels inadequate. Notifications are nice.

I look forward to hearing any thoughts on this.

Regards,
