Oh, indeed it's in the menu... didn't know. 

The question is whether "Remove finished transfers" should be perhaps the
primary remove option and thus be in the toolbar. I can only speak for myself
of course, but I almost never remove manually selected downloads. However I
regularly remove all finished downloads the have accumulated. I have no
scientific usability data, but I'd not be surprised if that is a pretty common
use case. You download files, and from time to time you remove the finished
downloads. So I would put "Remove finished transfers" (or better "Remove
Finished") in the toolbar and leave "Delete selected" (or "Remove Selected") to
the context menu.

Regarding PS: Yep, renaming "delete" to "remove" or "clear" (which IMHO would
fit better. Also Firefox uses Clear in the download list IIRC) is definitely a
good thing. "Delete" sounds just too dangerous and confusing :)
