A feature I would love to see in a YouTube player: better transcript view

- Single click to open transcript

- Transcript not crammed into tiny window in corner

- Often I use the transcript as a navigation tool when (re)viewing a long video. Especially when I want to share a specific part of a video.

And I found a bug in SkipCut when clicking a FAQ:

- If the video was started (then paused) opening a FAQ starts the video (audio).

- Possibly related? often the browser jumps down the page, so the FAQ I clicked is not visible unless I scroll back up. (Or maybe it is scrolling the FAQ to near the top of the viewport? It's disorienting. If intentional, a smooth scroll animation may help.)

Many language learning extension have this feature. They provide a transcript view beside the player.
