Description
I noticed that my client did nothing for a fair amount of time (minutes) just as a new network had become available. I assume the server is swamped with download requests so wouldn't it be better if the client kept working on the previous network until the download was complete?

Research direction
Start by tracing how the client reacts when a new network becomes available and how it queues network downloads. Confirm the current behavior around switching networks, then make the client continue working on the previous network while the new download is in progress; done when a newly available network no longer stalls ongoing work.
