Which, yeah, I agree is counter-intuitive. But with a program like wget,
I can never be sure that changing this won't break someone's script
somewhere.

I have a script that would be broken by such a change :-). (Well, except that at this point, it usually finishes the download before it would run into the quota.)
Matthew if your script finishes the download before it would run into the quota - you have no reason to use a quota at all. But even in those cases when script is running enough to run into the quota I have no idea how download breaking in the middle of a file may broke your script. Can you explain what really your script doing and how it can be broken in such situation?
