Bug Description

For a while I've been experiencing the seemingly spontaneous creation of the `~/Downloads` directory.

Now I've discovered that it was Transmission that created this directory because it was the `incomplete-dir` configuration directive.

Changing this configuration directive to a different directory, for example, `~/dl`, works around the issue.

The bug is that Transmission creates this directory despite the fact that `"incomplete-dir-enabled": false`.
