Is this a new bug?  All my download queue files show already downloaded at 100% but they won't go away.  I have to manually delete them?

There it is.  What a dumb default selection!  Why force people to delete a completed queue?  One by  one.  At the minimum there should be a big green button saying "delete downloaded queue".

The reason behind it was that any completed downloads would be immediately removed from share. This had a negative impact on users downloading from partial sources (you would see the whole swarm of users be removed from queue very quickly). With the file remaining in download queue, it was still shared for everybody. The way 1.5.0 is set up is exactly how torrents work - you must remove the file from queue to stop sharing.

The process has been refined in 1.5.1, which should be released soon.
