For example, if a user wants to download a big file (so he presses a button) and while the file is downloading he wants to delete another file, he shouldn't wait until the big file is downloaded, so the second file should be deleted *while* the first file is downloading. I looked at FileZilla's debug output and it seems that there is no second FTP connection to the server needed.

Yes it needs a second connection. Lots of servers won't care about anything you say on the control connection while the data connection is busy. libcurl only does one thing at a time per FTP control connection so it can't do anything on it until the transfer is completed.
