[WISH] Separate background windows for FTP and local

Sometimes I want to download files by FTP in background and simultaneously move or copy local files in background. At this moment if I set queue, this operations will be in 1 queue, so I have to wait untill FTP download finishes or move operations manually in that dialog. Why not to split network operations and local ones?

You can open 2 instances of the background manager simultaniously, and choose either one for downloading or copying. Not very convenient though, as you have to use the mouse, I'm not aware of any keyboard shortcuts in that window.

You can use the little [+] button on each of the background transfer manager windows.
