I feel like this is just a setting I can't find, but when I start a download, I want the download window(Titled "Library") to open automatically. I do not use the download status button thing. I'm on firefox 33.1.1

Many thanks for any help.

Did they not get rid of the separate download window? Now the only thing you can get is a doorhanger (and whose not-so-bright idea was that anyway?).

Nah, it's still there. Ctrl j on windows, ctrl shift y I think on linux.

Please say which solution you chose to implement in the end and why?

I tried both of the plugins, and while they technically worked, they kinda sucked or made unwanted changes. I'm just back with having to press ctrl+shift+y or ctrl+shift+j if I need a real downloads window. I have gotten used to using the popup thing from the toolbar.
