While web browsers still can’t replace internet download accelerators (as it’s a web browser and not download manager), there are a few features, which would stop most of the people from using them in the future:

1. An ability to change downloadable file URL.
2. An ability to add and remove downloadable file types.
3. Files split in smaller parts.
4. Scheduler.
5. Speed limit.

As web browsers now are becoming more than just an application to surf the internet, it’s important to understand that everyone is always downloading something. This is an inseparable part of rich internet experience (which web browsers should provide).

What do you think about web browsers download managers? Should they be improved?
