Gee, thanks for shouting at us to wake us up to this
heretofore-completely-unheard-of issue :).

Anyway, I was under the impression that Norbert had already written
stuff to restart downloads from the point of failure.  So perhaps there
is only some small tweak missing.  We will work on it.

    This may be a solution: aria2 (http://aria2.sourceforge.net).

Maybe.  Thanks for discovering/mentioning it.
