2. Allow website to show additional information about the download,
while the download is taking place.
And to satisfy all three cases (without breaking links), it needs to be
done at HTTP level, by adding HTTP header (or multipart response? or
attribute to Content-Disposition?) that causes both file download to
start and a page to be displayed at the same time.
Sending multiple responses in reply to a single request is generally
useful, but seems hard to implement in a fashion compatible with HTTP
pipelining clients.
How about a JavaScript opening a new browsing context and navigating it
to the additional metainformation when the user follows the link?
