2 years ago I definitely see the value in it, but I’ve been mulling on it the past few days and remain unconvinced it’s worth the extra effort. This would be useful too sparingly, considering there is already dp. You can’t see all downloads in waiting, but if you know you have something to prioritise you can already ⌘↵ to send the current one to the back.
The current method takes advantage of Alfred’s running instances which ensures things don’t trample over each other. Implementing what you ask would require creating a whole bespoke queuing system which is another entry point for bugs.
I started this post thinking “maybe” but in the course of writing it decided it’s not something I want to pursue. It’s all downside and zero upside for me, while providing marginal occasional upside for a few users.
Thank you anyway for the feature request.
Setup info
It would be really useful if there were a visible download queue, where you can also push any item to the top of the queue (download that one instead of the current download) and remove any item from the queue.
