I implemented some changes to make it more compliant to OSM policy in 2016 (see #47 and #48). Caching is not necessarily the same as bulk downloading. When a tile, that was downloaded while you where browsing the map, gets written to a file cache, it's actually taking load of the server. Regarding a bulk downloading feature I see the app developers responsible, not the library. That's why I implemented the user agent option, to avoid collateral damage.

using user-agent property, along with proper cache management on app devs part should alleviate all problems regarding tile use and bulk download use.
I've added the user-agent property to mapviewer.c example file. Should we stress it's importance in docs?

With release 1.2.0 this won't be a problem I think.
