Somebody going directly to a resource download link will not be tracked by google analytics (GA) since he's not clicking the download button ( the GA event is triggered via js ).
A user might go directly to a link if he sees a shared link on one of the social networks OR if he has bookmarked it.
We could possibly track this by sending the download events from the server side to google analytics. Still, downloads of external resources will still not be tracked in this case.
If we just care about not missing links shared on social networks, we could have a resource preview page for any type of resource and then actually share that link.
A similar issue concerns the preview resource events since we're not tracking it when previewing the page but when clicking on the preview button
