Actually this bug was about the preallocation which didn't work (or wasn't
meant to be implemented though the documentation told otherwise), so changing
to "wishlist: allow file preallocation" would be better imo (and perhaps also a
"qbittorrent: 'pre-allocate files' option doesn't preallocate files" bug, since
that was what my original complaint was about).

Though now I don't really understand the difference between storage_mode_sparse
and storage_mode_allocate. _sparse is the same as _allocate, except that it
doesn't work on filesystems that don't support sparse files? Doesn't really
make sense to have the two options then, imo (in addition to the fact that the
name of _allocate is now a bit misleading).

Best regards,
Christian Ohm

PS: Sorry about the technical stuff, but I don't really care enough about this
to bother with a different bug tracker. If there's more, I won't CC this bug
anymore.
