Feature Request: Rename file while in download #284

Fist I need to say I love this program and use it all the time, great work!

I'd like to ask for a minor change, a special option for downloading.

Sometimes I download many files at once, and for simplicity I use the same download folder, after the download is complete I move them to the proper location.

But, while the file is downloaded it retains the same name, so when I look in the download folder I see all the files but don't have any way to know wich ones are complete and wich ones are still downloading. Off course I can go to check the progress back on Aria, but it's besides my point here.

It would be nice to have an option like --rename-while-downloading or something similar that appends something to the file name (.ariatemp, for example) while it is being downloaded, then rename back to the original name when it is finished.

This would allow me to have Aria running on a server and just grab the completed files when they show up with the proper name.

Thanks for the wonderful program.
