I could not find a way to fine-tune seeding strategy? I would like to be configure seeding only when I am the only seeder, so to seed rare files, but not seed otherwise. Like an archive for less popular torrents. In library mode.

I would guess I would need a notify channel to be informed about all changes to peers and when there is no peer which seeds, I start seeding? But I am not sure if it is really possible to get full seeding information for a torrent as a client? Probably only trackers have full information?

Because of the current design, you can't see the number of seeders without starting the torrent. To find out the seeder count, the torrent client needs to send an announce request first. I'm not sure how to get the seeder count for stopped torrents.
