### Bug description
Firstly, congratulations and big thanks to @i2h3 - the newest release of v33.0.5 is a massive step up for macOS VFS! It addresses several points I raised in #9010, particularly through #9890 and #9057. Especially, the new "keep downloaded"-indicators are a massive game changer.
However, I recognised a bug in terms of how the "keep downloaded" policy is inherited. I am not sure if it is truly about the inheritance or just about the display of the indicator.
Working as expected: When a new file is added into a "keep-downloaded"-folder _via macOS_, the newly added file inherits the policy and gets an indicator.
Not working as expected: When a new file is added into a "keep-downloaded"-folder _via the online interface_, the newly added file does not get an indicator.

### Steps to reproduce
1. Install v33.0.5 on MacOS
2. Mark a folder as "always keep downloaded"
3. Add a file to this folder from the online interface
### Expected behavior
The new file added via online will be automatically downloaded and will also receive the arrow-badge indicator.

hofnam:
Is it technically possible to also introduce “Remove download” for whole folders, or will we need to keep on deleting the download of every single file, once we happened to keep a big folder downloaded?
Good point. Technically, this is possible. Actually, this is the way it should be. Spontaneously, I cannot see any obvious error in code. But I could reproduce the issue. I created an issue and it should be fixed soon.
