So there's a few issues with Download Data:

The second item might be doable via an event listener; I'd have to look around and see if there's an event fired for "download has begun and user has been prompted" or whatnot.

There is no such event and the workarounds are made of failure and sadness, so I've been working on splitting the API endpoint into two - a "create this download" and "retrieve this download" matched set, much like what we do with, well, everything else. Thankfully @WValenti's existing backend works on this model, so it's just a question of modifying the interface to it.
