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.
