mps-youtube doesn't download complete YouTube playlists. The app can only download (e.g. using dapl <playlisturl>) the songs that fit on the terminal screen height - so for instance, when used with the standard Gnome Terminal window size, it only downloads 21-22 items from the playlist. If for instance I maximize the terminal window, then it can download more items (40-45 or so).

Tested using mps-youtube 0.2.4 under Ubuntu 15.04.

I have had this taken care of in another branch, can re-apply fix as soon as I find a little time.

Change behaviour of `plist` when called with `dumps` flag so that playlist
downloads are no longer limited to the videos displayed in their first result
page. This should fix issue mps-youtube#294.

I'm not sure if this is the same bug, but if I say save when viewing a YouTube playlist, I expect the entire playlist to be downloaded. Instead, it only downloads the visible items. Looking in the help, this seems to be the intended behavior: save or save <name> - save the displayed items as a playlist. However, I can't find any way to just save a YouTube playlist locally (which to me seems more useful than the current behavior).

@pnutus try running dump to get all the items, then save.
