Intrepid confirmed when using a directory. Eg, if the torrent has:
../bad
../bad/foo

Then do on the affected client:
$ mkdir bad
$ echo "my data" > ./bad/foo

Then opening $HOME/Desktop/bad.torrent will overwrite 'foo'. This
doesn't seem to be a problem for Hardy, but I'm still investigating.

** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu Intrepid)
