I use Firefox browser in private mode always. Using version 42. When I download from most sites, I can see the download progress at the top of the window. However, when using the YouTube download button to download videos, I have to stop private mode to see the download progress. Why is that?

Is this and add on or a feature of the youtube site? If its the add on, please contact the developer to see if cookies need to be enabled.
