Comment (by nickm):

 So, reducing networkstatus_dl_check_interval() in the mainline code still
 makes me nervous.  I see two possible ways forward here:

  1. We could try very hard to make sure that there isn't a runaway-
 downloads bug that we'd be exacerbating by doing the check more
 frequently.
  1. We could figure out what event (in this case) we should be triggering
 a download check in response to, and trigger a download check in response
 to that.
