I would like a feature that uses the current RSS implementation, but instead of automatically downloading the files, it adds them to a queue which will wait for approval.  This would boil down to adding a new 'Mode' on the RSS page, and a status indication in the queue letting you know its waiting for approval.

The reason I ask for this is sometimes when pulling from RSS feeds for terms like "The Simpsons", sometimes I will get the newest episodes (which I want), but I also get older episodes (which I only sometimes want). I would plan to use the feature filtering the feed to automatically download S20 episodes, while queuing anything else, thus not wasting bandwidth or holding up the regular queue.

A partial solution will be in the coming 0.5.0 release.
You can set priorities for classes of NZB files.
While it will not stop downloading, you can give RSS entries a low priority
so that they end up at the end of the queue.

It will probably not be implemented as suggested in the ticket.
The team members do no agree on what's the best way.

maybe it's a good feature to auto pause a job when it's added as a certain class?
then you can resume it if you approve it
