Bug in deleting torrent and data!!!

Hi,

On downloading some torrent which has some zip files, if I unzip the files into the same download directory and then do to deluge and delete the torrent as well as the data downloaded then deluge deletes the whole directory including the unzipped data.

This is definitely a bug since deluge shouldn't delete any files which were not downloaded by it and hence a directory which has any extra file shouldn't be deleted by deluge even though the directory was created by deluge during the download process.

My deluge version is deluge-0.5.5-2.fc8 on fedora core 8.

Thanks
