Integrate DownThemAll, without fucking up existing installations of DownThemAll. Like how you uninstalled and blocked the Pocket plugin.
Allow blob:// videos to be saved normally. It's just a file. I'm looking at it. Move it from memory to the hard drive.
Tab Mix Plus needs to be feasible again, with multi-row tabs that aren't a hundred pixels wide. I want a grid of favicons. I don't give one solitary shit how anyone else feels about that desire.
Aggressively commit to supporting adblockers. Browsers obey the user. Servers can send documents, and we will do with them as we please.
True. Although in many cases this is indicative of a stream (not really a traditional file for the browser), but at the very least, even in the (rare?) cases that there isn't cached content already, it should theoretically be possible to start saving the video the moment you press on the save button...
