            Bug ID: 2946
           Summary: offer option to have only one downloading task at once
                    with priority to UI actions
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: GIT
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: Folders
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: kardan at riseup.net

CURRENT BEHAVIOUR
* as my bandwidth is limited I often have to wait minutes to open a
  folder while synchronizing tasks are running
* when a folder is opened and messages need to be downloaded, this
  process is slowed down by synchronizing tasks in the background
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR
* the sync task should check and wait if the user requested to open
  a folder and it needs an update etc.
* 'XP wants sync' should have a lower priority than updating folders
  because of UI actions
IMPLEMENTATION IDEAS
* add a check to folder_synchronise for ongoing downloads

Thanks!
