That and it would be cool because YT-DLP also has Sponsorblock settings, so if we could get options for that in UI then we could also download videos with sponsored segments removed, making the file smaller and shorter with no loss to video content.

Uhm, it already uses yt-dlp since November last year: https://github.com/jely2002/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v2.4.0 😉
