When the download request is created, we check if the download was initiated by the user.
loadInfo->GetHasValidUserGestureActivation()
If so, we always allow and proceed.
If it is not initiated by the user, we check if there is a permission granted to this website to make multiple automatic downloads. There might be 4 possibilities.

NULL: The permission is not set.
Allow the download to proceed.
Set permission for this website to PROMPT_ACTION (would be used on the 2nd download) .

ALLOW_ACTION: the permission was explicitly set by the user.
Allow this website to proceed.
Just a normal download workflow.

DENY_ACTION: the permission was explicitly set by the user.
Cancel the download immediately.
Do not prompt user that download was blocked

PROMPT_ACTION: this permission was set after NULL. Notice, that while the user didn’t clarify their will to allow or deny action, this permission stays. So not one, but a stream of downloads could have PROMPT_ACTION permission.
Create a call to Downloads Panel
Add a new request to “website”s request objects : [requestBlocked1, requestBloked2…].

Updating the status to New since this is a future implementation (task) and does not need confirmation. The same update will get to the rest of similar tasks submitted to clear them out from the Unconfirmed QA triage list.
