Resumable downloads
When downloading a big file, if the transfer gets interrupted, it would be nice to resume the download from the already downloaded data instead of starting from scratch.

On uploads we already have this, right @mgallien?

I do not think so According to https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc9110.html#field.range I do not think there is a way to resume an upload

we would already resume properly chunked uploads for smaller one, I do not know how that would be possible
Right, I meant chunked upload. Small uploads <10 MB can be restarted, as costs for this can be ignored…

maybe this could work via the PATCH method according to https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc5789.html

Ah, great, resume is already implemented for chunked uploads larger than 10 MB! And yes, for small files this can be neglected.
+1 Downloads are not resumable from browser and there is no option to copy a valid direct link to use in a download manager
