Ah, that feature that IE for OS 8.5 (?) had ... (I remember having a strange bug with that that kept the file progress bar from appearing and spending a very long trying to fix it ...)

(Anyway, I didn't know Safari did this.)

With the sneaky peeks there is actually something that will (usually) indicate that a file is done downloading: the mod date changes. I noticed this change immediately when using the sneaky peeks (I'm guessing it's from Web Kit), since I'm lazy and never clean out my downloads folder. It's sorted by date, so new downloads come up on top. Not anymore. But I'm on the fence about this, since it is (I think) a good thing to have the "actual" mod date of a file when you download it, say, for software. (It seems like a silly thing to me, but maybe others would find it useful to have a site specific option to not set the mod date of downloads to that given by the server, so they appear modified at the time they were downloaded.)
