ok, so let's assume that the user downloads a torrent containing 30 lectures in xvid, each 700MB in size.

I think it's a little early to talk about that >10 times in a "certain amount of time" feature as a complete fix for this.

I don't know if Transmission keeps all files for all torrents open all the time while downloading. Tracker has a way to leave your files and directories alone. That's not a problem at all. But then you're saying, "I don't want you to index or pay any attention to thiese files and folders". You do want it to index those files and folders, only, you want them to be indexed after they've been downloaded completely. I don't think Tracker should have it's own configuration option for that.
