A torrent downloader as a Firefox add-on rather than a standalone program?
Genius guys, pure genius!
Obviously what i like about it most is that fact. As a bonus, it isn't loaded with ads and a lot of unneeded/unwanted "bells and whistles".
As of yet, the only problems I've had with it can be blamed on my own s**t connection.

I would like to see 2 features added (so far):

1) the option to add multiple torrents at once.
Possibly by either clicking Add new torrent>Open File> and having the ability to select more than one at a time, and/or by drag-dropping torrents into place.
This would make adding many files at once less tedious.

2) If a torrent "stops" non-manually (happens with me due to poor connection. I believe the error was "cannot find torrent") it should continue to retry unless manually stopped, rather than me having to click "resume all" every few minutes in hopes my connection has cleared up.
This may make it friendlier to people with unreliable connections (such as myself. =P ).

In the end guys, this is an add-on I would recommend to others. Keep up the good work.

[EDIT]
I just thought of another suggestion if it isn't already in the works.
The folder the files are saved to are naturally filled with incomplete downloads (as expected), mixed in with the few complete files as well. perhaps the option to automatically move complete downloads to a separate folder would be beneficial. if while they are still downloading, they are saved in one folder, but moved to another once complete, it would make things a good deal more convenient for some people.
