aria2 listed in the table is very old 0.12. Here is the update for
latest 1.8.3 (I only listed the differences):

IPv6 Support: Partial. IPv6 is supported only in HTTP(S) download.
HTTP deflate/gzip: Yes
FTP Connection Re-use: Yes
Version: 1.8.3

And this is a proposal, it would be good to add "Metalink4" feature.
Existing Metalink is I think Metalink version3. Metalink4 is recently
approved by IETF. A URL of ID is here:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bryan-metalink-28.txt
Since the format of Metalink4 and existing Metalink are different(no
compatibility), it would be good to add "Metalink4" feature column.

Thanks for your good work.

Best regards,

Tatsuhiro Tsujikawa
