the `--file`/`--subfile` syntax would be workable; i'd probably employ a dedicated script to either know the sanitization mapping of the downloading client or to do heuristics based on file sizes. (side note on sanitization mappings: at least transmission seems to map every sane name through the identity map).
i'm worried though that adding the pre-downloaded files file-by-file will then make it harder for git-annex to do a verified check-in; if, for example, we have a two-file torrent, and add the first one, git-annex can't veriyf that file because the second half of its last chunk is missing. unless git-annex started a download of the last chunk, it couldn't be sure that the #1 .log.web line is valid, and would need to keep that in some unverified staging area a la \"./file1 could be ./two-part.torrent#1, but i couldn't check that yet\", and only commit that information when file2 is added.
