     * Asynchronously launches the download task for a given bounding box.

     * You can wait for the asynchronous download task to finish by synchronizing on the returned
     * {@link Future}, but make sure not to freeze up JOSM. Example:
     * <pre>

     *    future.get(); // waits for the dowload task to complete

     * the Swing EDT:
     * <pre>
     *    final Future<?> future = task.download(...);
     *    Runnable runAfterTask = new Runnable() {
     *       public void run() {

     *           // Main.worker is initialized with, but it doesn't harm either
     *           //
     *           future.get(); // wait for the download task to complete
     *           doSomethingAfterTheTaskCompleted();
     *       }
     *    }
     *    Main.worker.submit(runAfterTask);
     * </pre>
