Not sure if these are easy enough bugs but they're still open and 
upstream doesn't seem terribly interested:

bittorrent takes an unreasonable amount of memory and has a memory leak
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=204622

bittorrent is not utf-8 aware
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189295
