310942 - Proposals on a more sensible button layout for the download dialogue

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 308094

(Camino Graveyard :: Downloading, defect)

Description

Here are two of my proposals on the button layout:

1. (Left Side)[Continue/Stop][Clean Up]      (Space)  [Show][Open](Right Side):
In this proposal, the download can only be removed by dragging the item to the
Trash Can or through contexual menu. Restart replaces the cancel function and is
available from the contexual menu.

2. (Left Side)[Continue/Pause][Clean Up]     (Space)  [Delete][Show][Open](Right
Side): In this proposal, the download can also be removed by dragging the item
to the Trash Can. Restart is also available from the contexual menu

Reproducible: Always

Putting open on an edge instead of show in the default toolbar would be good
since it is a more common thing to do with a download.
