Ok, i will try this solution.

It should not be done automatically ? It will be facilitate for newbies 
who don't care of incomplete downloads or just forget to delete it manually.

I have:

rtorrent/downloaded - there are data is moving when finished downloads 
(and ofcourse data is seeding from this directory)
rtorrent/downloading - incomplete downloads directory
rtorrent/session - session directory
rtorrent/watch - watching directory for new data.
