followed_by not being updated

[m-lyon]

A metadata download object returned from the API module will not return the followed_by list, even after completion, even with download.live and download.update() methods, for example:

import time

magnetlink = 'magnet:?...'
download = api.add_magnet(magnetlink, options={'dir': '/tmp'})
while not download.live.is_complete:
    time.sleep(5)
print(download.followed_by)

Will always return []
However, the following will return the correct followed_by download objects:

import time

magnetlink = 'magnet:?...'
download = api.add_magnet(magnetlink, options={'dir': '/tmp'})
while not download.live.is_complete:
    time.sleep(5)
download = api.get_download(download.gid)
print(download.followed_by)

Is this expected behaviour? I was under the impression that the Download.live and Download.update() methods would ideally return the updated followed_by list.
