cache the download packages (by plot) and stack them together for the downloads

now that our downloader is working much faster, this won't be so necessary.
Pushing it to later.

but webpage timeouts will still kill our download function. So this may well still be needed.

The idea here is that you request a download and come back and get it later. It would be stored in your own download directory. This could be uniquely named by naming it with the number of a sequence reserved for this function. Getting the next value off the sequence updates the sequence, thus ensuring no naming conflicts. This would also be helpful for those on dialup who can access broadband later to pickup the data.
