Bug Description
Noticed with transmission 1.06 on a fully updated Hardy system.
When there is a download in progress with large large amount of unverified data (marked as yellow), restarting transmission or choosing "Verify local data" from the popup menu makes it discard all the "yellow" (incomplete) pieces causing major data and bandwidth loss.
Reproduced by right-clicking on a torrent with large amount of incomplete (yellow) data and choosing "Verify local data" from the popup menu.
