Have you considered having Kermit downloading, too?  For most Unix systems
that I know of, this is the main tranfer protocol used (and sometimes
the only one), and it would be much more useful that way.  Even without
Kermit, it still sounds amazing, especially the "background downloading"
capability.  I can hardly wait.
