Comment #1 on issue 5352 by [email protected]: When downloading a  
file, if the disk fills up, chrome pretends to keep downloading.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=5352

This is a serious bug. You could be downloading a bunch of files from a  
bunch of
places, and Chrome does not tell you that the download location is out of  
space. Then
you go to view the files and see that they are not there. Worse still, you  
cannot
even figure out what you are missing because any Save-Link-As saves don’t  
even show
up in the history!

Not handling out-of-space exceptions is a far-too-frequent oversight these  
days
because devs don’t seem to understand that not everyone has systems like  
they do, and
I have found that disks running low or out of space is responsible for all  
kinds of
faults from crashes to BSODs. Such a trivial error, such an easy thing to  
fix (or at
least warn the user about).
