Harrissou & Paolo, I wasn't aware of the OSM Downloader - which I've just tried. In common with OGR2OGR (and native QGIS import), it imports features according to geometry type - eg. a layer of points, a layer of multi-polygons, etc.
I was aware of QuickOSM. It didn't work for me when I tried a few weeks ago. I've since re-tried. From files, it has the same issues as OSM Downloader / OGR2OGR. The Overpass interface (which is where it seems to be really targeted) is much more powerful and flexible. Even then I had to do things like adjust the timeout for what was a simple query. I think Overpass Queries will be too much for the customers I'm thinking of - even manually entering key queries is probably too much. I'll contact the author as suggested - perhaps a third "set of pre-programmed options" might work rather than my plugin.
