[Feature Request] Automatic routing for HTML download attribute #152

Open mlysle opened 4 years ago

Some web pages have download buttons or links which utilize the HTML download attribute. https://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/att_a_download.asp It would be great if this extension could automatically route downloads triggered by clicking on download elements.

Better would be to have an override for the default download behavior to catch all cases but I don't know if that's feasible.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the request. I think Chrome might already work with download attributes, but I haven't tested it. This might be possible with a content script, but I don't have the energy for new features right now.
