I think I understand now what you're after, at last. You're right, it's 
one of those things which you don't notice anymore when you've looked at 
it for years.

I've made a change to the current development release:

   * Check whether patch already exists before announcing download

If a patch already exists in patchdir, it will not say anything about 
"Downloading .." anymore. Let me know if that's OK for you.

Martin.
