The file downloading works perfectly. The transfer from /tmp/lynx* to the
ultimate location drove me to hard link something to work around the copy
overhead on a system with a different /home filesystem, but that's tolerable,
and I suppose configurable with a tmp dir setting.
yes - the copying from the temp-directory can be annoying.
Perhaps we could implement something that adds a hardlink to the target
file (marking the temp-file as "used") if that works. iirc, we can't
simply rename it since the code assumes the file is still present in
the temp-directory.
