I wonder if the user can specify a directory for papers, so the mode will append the bibtex entry to the library and download the actual paper, if possible, to the specified directory.

Thank you for your suggestion.

It's not implemented. Some sources, such as Google Scholar, may be easy to implement. Other sources such as ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore, are more difficult since they require use authentication.

I'll leave this as an enhancement and I would try to write some code when I get some time. And welcome to submit a patch if you've figured that out!
