Title:
  Don't log *.part files in Downloads folder

Status in Zeitgeist Datahub:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello:

  I really like Downloads folder being monitored, really handy! The problem is that FF
  creates a *.part file until the download is finished, so in the end you get two files in the DB, yet
  the *.part one has ceased to exist and is redundant.

  I'll humbly recommend:

  a) Just keep the $filename*.part file in DB until $filename appears/is complete, which I guess
  can be a PITA since you'll have to do checks and DB deletions.

  b) Don't log *.part files at all. Since most cannot be opened anyway, being incomplete files, 
  I don't think not-logging *.part files will be a loss.
