Fair enough, but your web browser does contain a download tool, for 
downloading HTTP files. Even large ones. Because it's a lot more 
convenient to treat Freenet as a second layer Internet in some ways, and 
be able to directly link to files, and have them be downloaded. Ideally, 
they'd be added to the download queue in Firefox immediately.. Maybe if 
Freenet becomes popular, there will be an extension.

But I don't have to fire up GetRight, or wget/curl everytime I want to 
download something that's a HTTP linked file, and I'm glad it's that way.
