Details

This bug tracks work to be done on top of the Downloads Panel in bug 726444. * When the target file is removed from disk, clicking on a download item does nothing. The issue is that we can't detect whether the file is still there on hover, for performance reasons. Thus, detect missing files on click, and/or with an asynchronous background process when the panel opens, and assume the file is available until otherwise detected.
