Description Sense Hofstede 2010-02-21 10:39:20 UTC 
If you abort a file transfer the destination files are left in place, even though they're no complete files. Nautilus should remove the partially transferred files or at least ask if the user wants them to be removed.

Another good idea would be to follow firefox example
- create a 0 byte file named as the original file
- transfer the original file to the directory appending .part to the name
- remove .part once the file has been transferred
