Comment #45 on issue 333 by simon.bohlin: Request: Instead of just being  
able to save what you download- be able to run.

Download shelf needs improvement.  The suggested design doc seems great!  
And allows
for Chrome to be a window manager also for documents that reside in the  
download
shelf...

* The "Download Shelf" is where downloaded files go. The GC team wanted to  
allow you
to upload files (think webmail attachment) directly from the shelf too; see  
this
outdated page: http://dev.chromium.org/user-experience/downloads

* Currently the shelf can't come back if you hide it, and deleting files is  
too
complicated.

* Sometimes you want downloaded files to be only temporarily on the current  
computer,
but primarily on a storage service (S3, perhaps GDrive, ...). Thus you'd  
need the
Shelf to integrate with the file storage service of your choice (S3 is  
one). The
Shelf could become a "New files" folder. The Chrome page for Downloaded  
files could
split (hor/vert) to show the file service on one half.

(And by now this issue has degenerated to a design doc discussion? Sorry  
for adding
to the existing confusion...)
