Retrieve torrent files with a drag & drop

transgui is very handy because it integrates well with the operating system and you can for example seamlessly drag & drop torrents from your computer to transgui.

One thing that transgui lacks however is the opposite action: easily copy the files of a finished torrent to my computer. Currently transgui requires users to mount the folder from their VPS themselves to access the files but this is pretty inconvenient (I only want it to be mounted when transgui is open), and requires to manually install an additional file server protocol (e.g. FTP or WebDAV) and then mount it manually.

For example flood.js implements this feature by providing the option to download a finished torrent as a ZIP in just a click. transgui could go a little further than that thanks to its Files tab and tight OS integration: users could easily drag & drop a folder or individual files right to their computer. This would make for a really great user experience IMO! Thanks
