For packages where payload and metainformation are nearly the same size. 
But that's another story.

I never said it's a bad idea. It's just that I don't like the way it 
should be solved. If we do it with a shemas-file, we get only some 
browsers, and we give a systemwide standard for a thing that users 
solved for agaes by themselfes on many different ways, which we don't 
know how, and which has alternative apps to handle. Like the mldonkey 
thing I mentioned. That's why you can't compare this with other gnome-
support addons that just print a download finished message in desktop's 
native style.

If you want to include such a thing, feel free to do so, I just suggest 
a different appraoch (and I am working in this, too).
