I'm of no help and just curious, what are you trying to accomplish that the built-in manager can't do??

I want to pause downloads but sometimes when it resumes, it starts from the beginning.

Sometimes the ability to resume a download is prevented by the server you are downloading from. The server needs to support the request to resume.

Does it apply to Firefox Windows too? I couldn't resume some of my direct downloads. 1 factor why I've preferred torrents.

Yes. It's a server feature to allow a "resume" request or not.

Isn't exactly what you want, but you can use 1DM to intercept downloads when "External download manager" is turned on in Firefox.

How does this work with auth-protected downloads?

I'm on the January patch of 14 (P8P) and it works for me; installed it when I received phone around black friday.
