You have to save something before you can open it. Safari can be set to open safe files after you download them, but torrents are not considered safe files. Personally, I would never use a feature that would automatically open anything that I download, but I guess for some it could be a useful feature.
I have not done it, but I am sure you can do what you are wanting easily using automator.

Anyway, personally, when I open a torrent file it opens azureus and it dosen't even add the torrent file as I have to drag and drop it. So if you're using azureus I don't see the point of having this feature.
I don't use torrents to pirate-merely its an awsome way to exchange files amongst my peers(work files, pictures ETC) Sends alot faster then iChat or Adium.
I wouldn't recommend Azereus - it's not native, and it tends to hog up a lot of resources. Use something light and Mac-ified such as Transmission (what I use, it's fantastic) or Utorrent, which recently was released for Mac.
Just an FYI.

hey thanks for the info about uTorrent, i didn't realize they had a native mac version, and it supports encryption according to the FAQ (though the v # seems to be specific to the windows app so i'll see). encryption is the main reason i use azureus. this looks amazing, i'll give it a shot. i didn't like utorrent on my windows machine about three years ago, but this looks like a native app and not a port and it looks like a much nicer experience than vuze/azureus with their cumbersome interface. thanks mrs. mime.
i don't recommend using transmission. it's not as fast as vuze and it's not encrypted. it is pretty though.

No prob! I used uTorrent myself back when I had a PC, but I'm not going to spring for it yet as apparently it's still in it's buggy beta stage. I've tried Azereus but just didn't like it. So even though it's not that fast, I'm going to stick with Transmission until uTorrent is ready.
