Hi,
There was an official FAQ for the new launcher posted on the official forums
(

What if I have a low bandwidth connection?
A. After the initial beta release, users with connections below 1 MB/sec will be required to download all data before entering the game. Users with connections above 1 MB/sec will have the option of entering the game before all data has been downloaded and applied. Users at any bandwidth may exit the game and resume the download if they find the play experience undesirable.

Hopefully he means 1 Mbit/s and not 1 MByte/s. Otherwise they would implement a new feature for like 4% of the playerbase or so. If you got yourself a 10Mbit pipe or even more you certainly are not in need of streaming the game data.
