#119 Changing Download Directory while connected has no immediate effect
Using Alt-E, then F2 (or Enter) to edit a directory entry while connected to that directory entry and changing the Download Path setting has no effect until you disconnect and reconnect using that dialing entry.
I did not experiment with other changes to the dialing entry while connected. Changing some dynamically while connected (e.g. username, password, Log configuration, Paths) makes sense, while others (e.g. RIP mode) I would not expect to be dynamically changeable.

Can't be converted:
This is the design, you're modifying the directory entry in the file, not the properties of current connection. Very few properties of the current connection can be changed by the user after a connection is made.
We could talk about a new "Session Properties" type menu here if you like.
