Comment 3 for bug 446792

I mean that the checkmark system wasn't working on the outside, like in the
previous version. There was no option to download the file without going
into the specific information, not helpful if you already know that you want
it as well as wanting to install multiple files at once. You have to go into
every single menu and click download. This needs fixed simply for people who
want to select multiple downloads, hit "go," and walk off and do something
else. It's simply a time-waster to have it set up like it is currently.
