No, because you cannot do any look-ups. With the download mesh you more or less accidentally stumble across more sources. One source that you tried downloading from tells you, who else might have a certain file. It is not possible, simply to request all possible sources for a file and that's what you need, if you wanted to use the download mesh for looking up the IP for a certain ID/nickname
