I first apologize if this feature already exists and I have its description/name wrong or simply haven't checked the correct box somewhere in the settings...
But the only thing that really bugs me about the program is that, when I'm adding multiple magnet links in a relatively short period of time, some of them can take a couple minutes or more to find the detailed information about all the files in the torrent and what not. If the most recently-added link happens to be stuck doing this, it's impossible to access any other links I may have added, as well as anything on the program's main screen (e.g. deleting a torrent that has since finished, toggle to monitor speed, select any menu options, etc.). If I'm remembering correctly, a client I used in the past (I'm thinking maybe it was uTorrent) would allow you the ability to interact with the window for any link you just added, as well as the main window, at any point in time.
Thanks!

Re: Ability to interact with the rest of the program while a link is adding
I completely agree with you. I usually try to add only one torrent at a time due to this and I also try to download the torrent information file when I can rather than using magnet links. Unfortunately I don't think Pirate Bay even offers anything but magnet links, so that's normally when I run into this issue. So I try to use RARBG's site as much as I can, since I can download torrent files and then add to my client from those instead.
I would think that maybe the information will eventually be found if you just add it and force a resume, but for some reason it feels like it only finds the information when you let it sit at the "Choose destination folder" screen.
It does suck when you have multiple windows opened and an older one finally hits on info but you can't finish adding it because there are others ahead of it now.
