Description
Hello. I have written a patch for better storage of the DownloadFolder? user default. Instead of storing it as a path, I store it as an alias record. This allows users to move and/or rename their default download folder :-) The code is very error checking and the case where the download folder would be deleted is taken into account: if the folder does not exist anymore, then the user is asked where to save the files and an appropriate message is written in the Transfers preference (Warning sign + "Folder not found").
All the necessary files (patch + new files) are attached. The keyedobjects.nib file must replace the one of the PrefsWindows?.nib because of different bindings (ExpandedPathTo?... -> AliasDataTo?...)
I you have questions, don't hesitate to contact me.

This way might be a bit more confusing than the current behavior.
