I've been asking for this for months, but no joy.

It seems like only 2 clicks, but you have to close the news dialog box to see whether the recipe is downloading. And then reopen it to cancel and resubmit the recipe when it fails .... again... and again... especially with some recipes that have high failure rates.

If we could keep the new dialog box open, THEN it's only 2 clicks. But with the current setup, it's at least 5 clicks to cancel the fail stalled recipe, reopen the news dialog box, find the recipe, resubmit it, and close the dialog box again. Each time.
