Well from my point if view, people should have options. I lile using a client 
and I also enjoy the web interface. The web interface does not support a 
batch queue, does it? With a client, I can queue as many files as I want to 
and walk away to let them download.

I think for a web batch queue, you would need to create a download manager 
for Synchronet. Seeing as FTP Clients already exist that can do this, 
creating a proprietary manager would be a waste.

Thats thje beauty of options and thats all I am trying to say. With options, 
we can both disagree and both do things as we both prefer to do them and 
agreeing isn't required.

It's simply individual choice.
