[Bug 1481673] Re: No mechanism for displaying internal downloads in transfer indicator

 

This dovetails with work that Renato and I started last week to show
other non-download-manager transfers. The use case we're already looking
at is calendar syncing.

It's a work in progress, but the relevant branches are at

https://code.launchpad.net/~charlesk/indicator-transfer/add-plugins

and

Title:
  No mechanism for displaying internal downloads in transfer indicator

Status in indicator-transfer package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-download-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  We're currently adding support to the webbrowser-app to allow it
  download files internally in addition to sending them to other
  applications, currently download manager has a metadata property
  titled "showInIndicator", however this doesn't appear to have any
  effect when the transfer is happening inside an application without
  content-hub involvement.

  This results in an inconsistent experience for the user, as some
  downloads from the browser show up in the indicator (those opened
  immediately with other apps) and some don't (those downloaded for
  later use).
