in both the gtk and web ui's you can choose which files to download.
can you please add a screenshot and what version are you running on?

When adding magnet links, you will not be able to chose the files you download, until you start downloading.
When adding .torrent files you can choose files and directories before you start.

The downloads set of options has a setting for adding torrents in a paused state. You can add new things paused and not start them until you sort them.

The interface set of options has an option for always show the add torrents dialog. I think if that is not set you won't get the prompt when adding new ones.
