Show in the history why a certain file was downloaded.

I have a couple of rss feeds setup. I have a couple of different indexsites. I even have sickbeard adding nsb's to sabnzb.

Sometimes something goes wrong an sabnzb just starts to download files and i don't know where they come from.

Was it an rss feed? Was it an api call from another application? Was it a direct download via the interface?  Or did the nzb come from the 'black hole' directory?

If sabnzb would keep track of where the requests came from it would be easier to find out why files get downloaded.

That information could be shown to the user via the "History" list in the interface.

Thanks.

This might not be a terrible idea, considering just how many different ways stuff can be added to SABnzbd these days.
