#3028: "Force Recheck" menu option  is an acceptance of bugginess

 "Force Recheck" shouldn't exist. If Deluge and its underlying technology
 worked as advertized, then there would be nothing to check.

 As it is, I work on a filesystem with block-level checksums (so I am
 certain my disks are not flipping bits), and every torrent is claimed to
 download successfully, run their post-download move trigger, and then
 stop.

 About 1/5th of the time, running "Force Recheck" discovers some problem,
 and Deluge then restarts the download phase at about 90%.

 That shouldn't happen.

 Moreover, there should be no "Force Recheck" button at all. That is an
 excuse for shrugging the burden of broken software behavior off onto the
 user. If libtorrent or deluge worked, then there would be no reason to
 recheck.
