Bug Description

Reproduce:
1. Run [1]
2. Start, then immediately close window
3. Wait until download finish (can be asserted via UDM's logs or some other way)
4. Run [1]

What happens:
Nothing. The download failed behind the scenes and there's no way to know from the client's POV

What should happen:
A client should receive failure signals even though the failure is in the past (as a client does with finished downloads).
