Description
Concise Description
I go to use reverse playlist, and at first it will appear work normally since it flips the playlist order, but once it goes to the next video on the list, it reverts the order back to the original with the button still on, so once I click it, it reverses again, causing it to flip opposite to the original order before activating reverse playlist to begin with. Refreshing the page does not fix it either, it keeps the same data and the opposite order.

Start by reproducing the issue in Chrome with a playlist: enable reverse playlist, let the current video advance, and refresh the page. Trace the extension's reverse-playlist state across video navigation and reloads; done means the reversed order remains active and the button state stays consistent.
