What about implementing bittorrent as a download mechanism? See bug 236755

limiting simultaneous downloads

With reference to the limit on simultaneous downloads (and cross-referencing to some discussion I saw about preferences) there could be a simple option which sets these limits with a simple slider bar on which the browser optimises these settings based on the maximum download bandwidth they want to use.

downloading of huge files

Support downloading of files larger than 2 GiB. See bug 184452.

Most Linux distributions offer a dvd images for installation. It would be nice to load these without any extra fuzz.
