Suggestion : Please remove the fat download bar and put it next to the extensions menu.

Issue description

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Not really a problem, this is a suggestion.

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
The fat downloads bar is pretty annoying since it takes up a huge chunk of valuable screen real estate.  It would be nice to have an option (at least a flag) where we can be able to move the downloads bar up to the omnibar.  Firefox does this perfectly, and so do some extensions in the Chrome Web Store (ex. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/downloads-your-download-b/gjihnjejboipjmadkpmknccijhibnpfe).  However the extensions in the Chrome Web Store often have many issues and I am unsure whether they are safe or not.  Having an option to hide the download bar next to the omnibar will allow for more screen space and overall provide a better browsing experience.

Did this work before? No

FWIW, CentBrowser, a fork of Chromium, already implements that.
Thanks!  I'll check it out!

Nancy, can you see if this UI feature request is something needed?
