Issue #1745 was solved the other day. But to go along with it, it would be nice to optimize these video selections as well:
--match-title
--reject-title
--date
--datebefore
--dateafter
And maybe all the video selection options. ( https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl#video-selection )

At the moment, if a youtube video from a playlist is outside a date range or has rejected title regex, the video and info pages still load for it anyway, and then afterward skip over the video since it doesn't match the filters. By adding the filter check before the info page loading, the info page loading could be skipped entirely. This is assuming that the data required for these filters is available prior to loading the individual video info pages.

Would really also like to see the ability to specify two links, a videos page so you can say download all videos from X page, but then a 2nd link that says "this video and ONLY the ones made after it".

So essentially it'd act as dateafter, but you can just give it the link of the video where you want it to start downloading from instead of using the dates.
