 This is hrev46303.

 Here's a little mockup to see if icons as buttons may be nicer than the
 current text-buttons:

 [[Image(DownloadManager_mockup.png)]]

 The originals "Remove" button might confuse a user, thinking it'll delete
 the downloaded file.[[BR]]
 I'd also propose to have a simple "Clear list" at the bottom that removes
 all finished or missing entries. Paused or downloaded entries
 remain.[[BR]]
 The "Pause" icon toggles with "Play", of course.[[BR]]
 2nd icon is "Open parent folder".[[BR]]
 3rd icon is to remove the entry.[[BR]]
 You open a file by double-clicking the file icon. All commands should also
 be available via context menu, plus a "Get info" entry opening a window
 with more info like MIME type, file size, origin URL etc. Bubble helps for
 all icons

 I'd also prefer a grey background, similar to Tracker's copy window.
