Only thing I -would- like is the ability to have an auto-rename function; Perhaps have a variable that lets you put in a few wildcards like the date, time, video title and video ID?

You can specify an output template. The example below would save the file using the title and file extension.

youtube-dl -f 18 -o %(title)s.%(ext)s http://youtubevideourl
