As for it showing the no entries message, that is a bit more complex. The categories and entries are displayed via blocks, so the block is showing a no-entries message, not the DOWNLOAD_CATEGORY_SCREEN.tpl template itself. I'd have to tell the code to set render_if_empty=0 on that block. But then there's what if no entries are shown because some kind of filtering is being applied - you would want to actually see that message. I think I'll leave that for templaters. It's not a bug to say there are no entries when there really are none there, it's just a matter of opinion whether to say it or not.
