FR - Only resume if sending host supports resume

It would be good if there is an option in Limewire to only resume a file if the sending host supports resuming, once a file is over a specified size.

Example: You are downloading a 700MB file, and thus far have downloaded 250MB. The host drops off the gnutella network. Another host exists that does not support resuming but has the file.

Current behaviour: Forget the 250MB, starting from 0MB downloading the same file.

Behaviour with option selected: Keep searching the network for a host that supports resuming, because the file is over the user-specified threshold (eg, 100MB).

Would this be hard to implement?
