#318 trying to open unfinished download folder fails when folder!= final folder

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Setup a 'download' folder where incomplete downloads go and
2. setup a separate folder for completed downloads
3. try to open a folder or file before the download is complete...

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected -- folder to be opened (maybe), or in case of incomplete file -- error message that incomplete file can't be "opened".  Possibly error message on trying to open folder that's downloading instead of opening it -- since if you open it at the exact instant transmission is trying to move it to the 'completed' state, having it open might cause unpredictable results (might fail if transmission running on windows due to locked directory, but if running on linux (most likely), would just get some odd behavior like seeing the dir momentarily, and then being dumped up a level or having the window close...)...

Either way, probably shouldn't get the "Unable to execute" message that one gets now...someone who doesn't understand windows might be clueless as to why they got that message.

(Obviously, not a big issue -- just a better error message).

BTW -- Major kudos for being able to open both folders and files properly now!  Many thanks -- I can launch videos directly from the GUI interface now -- most excellent!
