Comment(by Redsandro):

 The label trick is interesting, I didn't know that.

 As for the other subject, {{{Download Location}}} is indeed a holding
 area, if you will, for global downloads, like so:

 ''Download Location'' '''->''' ''Move Completed''

 ''/mnt/'''sdb'''1/incoming/'' '''->''' ''/mnt/'''sdb'''1/downloaded/''

 This is the default behaviour we choose to happen to added torrents,
 magnets, etc.

 But if we (or a script) override the default {{{Download Location}}}
 storage device - either because the original one is full and/or because we
 want it on another storage device like an sdcard or usbstick or external
 drive on purpose - it is implied that we do not want to move the download
 back to the default location on completion. I think doing so would be
 illogical in 99% of cases.

 ''/media/'''sdc'''1_sdcard/webcasts/'' '''->'''
 ''/mnt/'''sdb'''1/downloaded/'' (illogical)

 ''/media/'''sdc'''1_sdcard/webcasts/'' '''->''' ''[stay put]'' (default
 override)

 Some scripts allow us to override the default download location, and when
 we do, it is obvious we do not want to ''move completed'' to the default
 setting anymore.

 Although an option to change the {{{Move Completed}}} path in the dialog
 would be welcome to some users, I argue that the {{{Move Completed}}}
 option should automatically be disabled when '''something or someone'''
 changes the {{{Download Location}}} for a single download.
