The real question is why having a quota is useful?
The reason developers want it is to know how much they can download
and store without getting an exception.
Which still doesn't guarantee they won't get an exception if the device
runs out of space for whatever reason.
Native apps are not
controlled when it comes to storing data and nobody complains.
Is there any documentation on how they handle the above scenario? Just
write to disk until you hit failure?
I think so. This is certainly the case with desktop apps. I also didn't
find any mention of quota in Android download manager docs
(http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/DownloadManager.html) or
in Tizen's Download API
(https://developer.tizen.org/dev-guide/2.3.0/org.tizen.mobile.native.apireference/group__CAPI__WEB__DOWNLOAD__MODULE.html)
