I have to disagree. I also would really like this feature, and if you Google it, you will see that quite a few people have requested this, especially in the non developer chrome boards.
It is annoying to me as well that I cannot clear individual downloaded items, and frankly, there is no reason Chrome SHOULDNT have that. I mean, why is it not useful? For example, the site Stereogum offers tons of free mp3 downloads (legally). As a fan of the site, if I download multiple files, I want to be able to clear completed ones while others are still downloading.
