The feature mentioned in the linked issue is something that Youtube directly provides. This PR offers a nice workaround, and is good to have anyway as well, but I don't think it should be considered as having 'fixed' that issue.

You are right that should not count as a fix, taking it out of the PR. Not sure how easy it is to implement, might take a shot at it if i find time.

Hi @Thompson3142, I’ll close this for now, since we are in the middle of a UI rewrite and don’t accept any new features at the moment. Feel free to reopen it in the future!
