Some tweaks for built-in download panel, restartless extension for Firefox

Styles

Example styles for userChrome.css/Stylish:

• hide some menu items
• show NN% label after each progress bar

API

You can use DownloadPanelTweaker:OpenDownloadWindow (“open old window”), DownloadPanelTweaker:ToggleDownloadSidebar (“toggle sidebar”) and DownloadPanelTweaker:OpenDownloadTab (“open in tab”) events to override commands, example:

window.addEventListener("DownloadPanelTweaker:OpenDownloadWindow", function(e) {
	e.preventDefault();
	// Put here some code to open alternative download window
}, false);
