Show seeder and leecher numbers, not just connected and available

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I was surprised just now when viewing a download and it showed 0 peers I was 
like um how many seeds does this torrent have that I'm connect to right now?

Unfortunately unless I look at the ui in the web browser or use my pc I have 
absolutely no idea how many people who have the full copies of the torrent 
contents I'm downloading off at that moment.

I find it very very very strange you show only peers/leachers your downloading 
from and not the main seeders your connected to in the view.

Also number of full copies seen may be a good addition to the view.

It shows how many peers you are connected to, and how many peers there are. It 
does not show whether those peers are seeders or leechers. This is because of 
historic reasons... but I agree a difference between seeders and leechers would 
be nice!

When I used utorrent the other night it never at all showed the seeder count at 
all as there was about 13 seeders with the file and 6 leachers which I had no 
connection to as the seeders were outputting allot of bandwidth and the app 
only showed 0/6 peers.

So if there was 0 leachers and sat 20 seeders it wouldn't have shown any number 
I gather.

So found that pretty strange and if downloads/uploads are combined to the 
leachers/peers then that just makes the current even more confusing as most 
people wouldn't know and would just accept that as the peers you are 
downloading from as that's how its shown in all the main clients.
