I would be way more interested in this project if it downloaded normally in the background immediately after the torrent is added, and then downloaded specific bits as programs requested them. I haven't looked into the code base for this exactly but it says nothing about it in the Readme.

Otherwise, like you're describing, you could add a file and then go to read it a week later and be met with no seeders and thus no file when it could have been grabbed somewhere in between.

But maybe that extends beyond the capabilities of a file system?
