Preflight checklist
Component
Desktop GUI (Hydra Download Manager)
Problem
Currently, the categories in Hydra are fixed and cannot be added to or customized. Additionally, users cannot create or rename download queues. This makes it difficult to organize large numbers of downloads.
For example, if I want to download a game that has 40 parts, or organize my programming-related downloads or TV series, they all get mixed up in the default categories. It would be incredibly helpful to group specific files together to easily start or schedule them (e.g., scheduling a whole custom category to download at 2 AM).
Proposed solution
Allow users to create, rename, and manage custom categories and queues in the GUI. Users should be able to assign downloads to these custom categories and schedule or start the entire category/queue as a batch.
Alternatives considered
Relying on the default categories and manually selecting multiple files to start or schedule them, which is tedious and clutters the download list.
