Default auto search & auto resume

an option that makes limewire search for more hosts when an unfinished download that is in the Awaiting Sources stage is next in line, then resuming the download as soon as the search is done(closing the search tab as well). so, by this i mean the option should include downloads that are Awaiting Sources in the dl queue. about the resource issues of such an option, possible solutions would be allowing the user to set up number of re-searches before finally giving up on a file, or specifying a period of time to wait before searching for more sources.

i've had a lot of experiences where i select an unfinished download to "Find more Sources", but then it doesn't find any. but when i do a manual search and then try "Finding more Sources", it quickly finds hosts. but manual searches can get tiring, so automated searches would be a lot more convenient.
