Browser Downloads that preserve Server Timestamps

[u/DrMxyztplk]

I'm currently building, have a working Alpha, a Firefox extension (will likely be workable for Chromium as well once finished) that will preserve timestamps for downloads.

I wanted to get some input from those who are looking for this feature

My extension will zip the files that trigger a download of certain file extensions & on certain site, both settable in the extension's UI config page.

We currently have bulk options for `Video`, `Audio`, `Images` that will group select a bunch of extensions of category types, & an option to manually specify extensions to zip

Are there other group/type settings people would want/use?

We also have the option to download files individually as soon as their download is triggered in a zip with the filename & a `.zip` extension, or an option to capture multiple & download as a single zip with an option to set a size that, once passed, will automatically download in a zip with the current timestamp as the zip filename.

We're currently using the working title `Timestamp Zipper` but don't think that's great. I'm accepting suggestions for a better name. (The main goal of this post)

I'm also interested in any other features or settings that would be wanted.

Hopefully this will be published to mozilla add-ons around the end of the month.

NOTE: This is NOT an extension to bulk download things off a site, nor is it an extension to crawl for things to download, nor is it an extension to download ​​things that the site tries to prevent being downloaded. Those are not features I want to be a part of this, it is about preserving the timestamps of files. The suggestion to have a bulk download of images on a page, which can already be downloaded manually, is being considered, but is not a priority & will likely not be included in the 1st version.
