Idea for download-based addons (or maybe for base firefox code?)

We have notification popups for download completion, but how about for download failure as well?

I’m a frequenter of the baidu download service, but it’s rather garbage without the client, which I refuse to use.

Even though the download fails often, I can always resume it from the point of failure.

The problem is, I always have to keep my eye on the download tab. If I wait for too long after download failure, I can’t resume anymore. So having a notification popup for when my download fails is a great thing. This is of course, just one facet of its usefulness.
