Comment #41 on issue 1028 by lealcy: Continue downloads in background when Chrome is closed http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1028
I think we can do better than Firefox ou Download Statusbar do. Think about the downloads running all in one separated process (just like the Firefox download window fells), and a button somewhere in the browser interface (like a notification button, that can changes appearence accordly to the status of the downloads). When the user click the button, a dropdown window with the download list appears to let user manage then. The button itself can be the notification for completed download. This behavior will add _one_ more process per window (not tab). And every window will have it own download list control. If someone closes the window, the downloads lefting can be merged with any other opened window or can throw a notification to the user or pause all if no more chrome windows are left. I think it solve the "minimum notification requirement" that move chromium designers and the feel of you canceled the download just by close the tab with threw it. And I'm with the Pileot and it's list of features that the chromium have to support, apart not consider some of then really "must have". But it's like to be some torrent support as well. ;) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
