Thanks for your input, greatly appreciated.

But I removed the donation addresses, this is not the right place to write them down. If someone is interested see his Github page/link.

Automatically pause completed torrents to save bandwidth to stop seeding them

Btw you can set 0.00 ratio in settings and it will automatically pause downloaded torrents.
To bypass this (Ie.: you still want to seed stuff), you can use Force Start.
