Sorry for spamming, but just noticed another thing:

transmission-cli now doesn't write the download into the directory from
which it was invoked (as the version from OpenBSD 4.7 did), but insists
into saving into ~/Download (and will complain and ABEND very
noisily if this directory doesn't exist).

Personally, I find this obnoxious. It's ok for the GTK version, which
does the same thing -- but at least there it is actually visible that it
intends to do so, as it's in the configuration dialog.

For a CLI, it is conterintuitive. If I do `wget $URL` the very last
place where I'd be looking for the downloaded file would be some inane
'Downloads' directory under my $HOME, but I'd expect it to come up in
the current directory.

But I have the feeling that this may be actually an ill-advised, but
deliberate change from upstream, so this is just me ranting.
