Another way to quickly check your downloads folder from within safari is to use 
these 2 hotkeys in succession:
1. Press command h to hide safari. You can simply tab back into it later.
2. From the finder that you land in, use the finder key combination command 
option l. If you look in the finder menus under go to, you will find that 
command option l takes you straight to downloads. Note however, that this 
keystroke is Lion only.
3. When you know what you were after, command w to close the downloads folder 
and command tab back into safari.
