Research direction
Open studio.youtube.com, select Videos, and reproduce the preview from a video's thumbnail while checking the existing quality-setting behavior. Trace the JavaScript handling for quality selection in the extension; done means the studio.youtube.com preview respects selections of 720p, 1080p, or higher.
