It's been almost 2.5 years since this bug was opened, and it looks like a lot of people would like it.  While KGet is great most of the time, for cases where you have download limits on an FTP site, or are connected to a very slow site, and also want to download files from other unrelated sites simultaneously, this proposed feature is absolutely necessary.  Please read the text for bug 63461 (marked as a dupe of this bug) for a good description of why this feature is needed.

The other features listed in this report would also be nice.

Also, please check out the Downloader for X program previously mentioned.  I used to use this before KGet came along, and its features were excellent.  Unfortunately, it doesn't integrate well at all with KDE; emulating some of the advanced features and operation of that program in KGet would be ideal.
