What would you like to see?

So using the web scraper to browse a supplier's site. Site links to many PDF datasheets. It would be helpful if the scraper could download these to embed.

Tunable parameters would be helpfula s well.

E.g. allowed/excluded file types: pdf, docx etc
Maximum file size: (to prevent the scraper from downloading say a 300mb PDF or something)

Would like to see an update where the scraper can download and process the pdf's and reports differently when it lands on one of them rather than ignoring them or crashing
