I find it very nice that it's possible to fit a torrent into one or many user-defined categories.

In fact I like it so much, I propose that the user could have more options that (s)he could bind to a certain category.

One such feature would definetly have to be that when the download of the torrent finishes, the data is moved to a certain folder.

Another feature would be automatic categorisation -- the user could set that e.g. all torrents from a certain tracker would automatically be associated with a certain category.

Use case:

User downloads music from e.g. Jamendo, audiobooks from LibriVox and ISO images from e.g. his favourite distros. Since (s)he's a nice guy/girl/person/dog, (s)he wants to seed as long as possible, but for obious reasons does not want to have them in the same folder. Because the user doesn't want to listen in Amarok to non-complete albums, (s)he doesn't want those torrents to download directly to the music folder. Also since ISO images are quite huge and (s)he only wanted to burn them once, (s)he wants to delete them after a good amount of seeding.

Solution:

The user makes three new categories -- "Audiobooks", "ISO" and "Music".

* to all torrent that come from the Jamendo tracker, KTorrent would automatically assign the "Music" category, in which it would say that all finished torrents should be moved to '~/Music/' (and seed ad infinitum).

* to all torrents that incude the name "audiobook" , KTorrent would automatically assign the "Audiobooks" category, in which it would say that all finished torrents should be moved to '~/Audiobooks/' (and seed ad infinitum).

* the user could manually assign the "ISO" category to the appropriate torrents, in which it stated that the torrents would be automatically deleted after their seeding ratio would reach 6.

If this was possible to integrate with e.g. Amarok as well, so when clicking the "download" button when listening to Jamendo or some other netlabel in Amarok, it would automatically apply the right category (and thus user settings), it would be bloody amazing!
