Answer to myself: yes, we want it, because it will easier to create a 
new download directory and parse its content after urpmi usage, than 
parsing urpmi output.

Thierry, here is a patch fixing the usage of the value given through 
--download-dir option.

Feel free to commit, alongside your own patches.
