Option to apply original last-modified timestamp from server
I prefer files I download to show the same last-modified time as on the server (contained in Last-Modified http response header), as I consider it more important to know when the file was modified/uploaded, not when I downloaded it (which can be discovered from the filesystem ctime anyways, i.e. ls -c)
Most browsers and downloading tools (apart from wget --timestamping) fail on this - please make PCA stand out here ;-)

Ok I understand that these two features depend on that, but I personally never use them. It could be a power user off-by-default option.

The 'download date' is used in the app to sort the playlist or to delete automatically downloaded files base on the 'Automatic cleanup' settings.
Sorry but I cannot replace the downloaded date with the last-modified server timestamp. -

Has been almost two years, and a lot of metadata lost.
This is a 5 line fix, can I do something else besides ordering the donate version? Unfortunately, source code is not available for this fine product, or I would have contributed a patch long ago.
