List of torrent files when adding a magnet URI

Hi, When I add a magnet URI on the Add Torrents window, it doesn't automatically download the metadata like what uTorrent does, so I can't select which files not to download. I can only do it when I have started the torrent.

Hmmm this never caught my eye, great request! Remember then when they would add this they would have to make a connection first and so it will take 10 seconds at least to show the files!

Yes please add this ASAP. It's really annoying to have to start the torrent, wait for the files to appear, immediately stop the torrent so you don't allocate disk space for the files you don't want, select the files you do want, then start the torrent again. Just have it automatically fetch the metadata and show up in the list like normal.

If it was as simple as 'just' then we would have added it a long time ago.

Actually there is a workaround, if you set the download location to something invalid, it will error out and you can then decide which files you want.
