If the download hangs due to an internet connection restart, the download will rarely, if ever, continue (correctly). Pause/Resume will not fix the download, and Cancel/Retry does not download the file again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download a large file (10+ MB) 2. Kill your internet connection sometime while it is downloading 3. Reconnect 4. Try to Pause/Resume or Cancel/Retry to finish the download Actual Results: The download fails and cannot be restarted in any way other than completely restarting the download manually. Expected Results: Continued the download from the last chunk downloaded and attempt to finish it. Pause/Resume should allow the download to resume, but it doesn't. Cancel/Retry should restart the download, but it doesn't.
