Sorry, I don't understand this bug report. What is the functional
difference between cancelling, and pausing and never resuming? I guess
cancelling might mean the partial download is deleted. But I'd expect
deleting partial downloads to be the sort of thing that is handled by
cache control rather than requiring manual deletion.
> Currently if you pause, then stop the app, when you return it tells
you the download failed and offer a chance to retry.

That seems like a separate bug. It shouldn't matter whether you try to
resume five seconds later or five weeks later; if the server implements
HTTP Range:, resume should work.
