Comment (by Eben):
#2555 goes into detail (including an attached image) about the design for
in-progress Journal entries. I think this is a logical place for
downloads to appear, since they will appear then when complete anyway.
The question remains if we need them to be somewhere in the frame all the
time, if we want a notification to alert the kid when the download
completes (even if it isn't persistently in the frame), and if using the
clipboard is acceptable.
One thing I will definitely say is that, if we ''do'' use the clipboard,
we need to make sure that it doesn't become the paste target when it's
added. That is, to maintain predictability, we want the paste target to
always be the last thing copied. I'd prefer not to mess with the
clipboard metaphor at all, yet I see the usefulness of having it readily
available. What do others think? Could we get away with simply using the
Journal, perhaps with a small audio notification or something when it
finishes?
