If the users enters the name of a (YouTube) playlist, the whole playlist shall be available for download. Including usual features like selection the resolution or audio only.

And "synchronizing" a playlist should be a thing. As in, when you have already downloaded half of a playlist, or when you've shuffled videos around in the playlist...

It turns out that is already possible to download playlist, using the link to the playlist overview (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdggsxkcyomUtgbE0R7f_uRCLECXb8aCk ) However, it's a common use case to copy the link to a video including also the playlist from which is currently playing (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__TBMV3HA8c&list=PLdggsxkcyomUtgbE0R7f_uRCLECXb8aCk It this case, the user shall be asked, if they what to download only the video or the complete playlist.
