Summary:  Accidental deleting of downloads possible

Original Submission:  The mldonkey GUI (Linux version) has a "Cancel" button in 
the lower left corner. Accidentially, it usually is very close to my taskbar 
which is set to auto-hide. During the last two weeks I now manager to cancel 
two files (which were about to be at 100% after a long time!) by accidentially 
hitting on Cancel and not on the taskbar. As the gui doesn't popup a window 
asking whether I'm sure to cancel this big file which has been downloaded to 
99%, well, it's now lost and I am pissed off.

May I add that the Linux GUI is also otherwise behaving strange (the download 
indications (red/blue/green/black) are not updated), misses features 
(download/upload rate in kb/s) and just looks damn ugly? I've installed the 
MacOS X GUI, too, and it looks just fine (though again misses other features 
like "Retry Connect). In any case I strongly recommend to improve the user 
interface of the Linux client, at the moment it's safer to use the telnet 
interface.
