Default Add indicator for "easy" file hosters

Hi,

I would like to suggest that there are indicators to show that a hoster doesn't need captchas to type in and that he supports resume. This should be shown in the link collector so that it is easier to select a comfortable hoster where no further interaction is required. With so many hosters it is hard to remember which are captcha-less and support resume.

not currently possible as jd only knows parts of the plugin when it processes it. Like for example linkchecking doesn't indicate it has captchas in the different download methods (free, premium,etc). Some hosters also do not give you captchas 100% of the time, how do you rate those?

In our next major version we have two settings annotations for captcha within the the plugin set by the devs to state true|false to captcha, and true|false to autocaptcha. This is only as reliable as the dev defines, and if the hoster has captcha greater than 0% time it will be true. So still not 100% reliable.

Resume is in the same fate. In our next major version we will add dynamic chunking (not yet started) and that will be totally handled by the program. When this features completed you will not know if chunking is available until the program has tried it and succeed or failed, we can also have annotations for that by the devs, but once again but it won't be reliable as say just letting JD trying.

So if you have premium and you add links they would say resume yes? what happens if your account disables you then get no resume + captchas. You will still need to do something about that yourself.

Next major version has some promising features and support tickets outstanding but once implemented we can add more features to plugins/jd interface. But until this next major version comes out we are prevented in implementation of new features to the general public. So choose hosters you know are preferred.
