[Feature Request]: Option to Freeze Suggestions/Recommendations #5861

Describe the feature you'd like to request

I would like to see a way to "freeze" suggested videos, so that the same ones would show up when revisiting a video (within a reasonable amount of time). This would solve the common issue of seeing multiple videos a user desires to watch in the suggested video list, opening one, and the others not reappearing on subsequent videos. The current state requires the user to somehow note or bookmark all videos that they might be interested in before choosing the next one to watch.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'm not technical, so I don't know how the curren suggestion system works, but I imagine the solution would be recording the suggestion list as it loads on a given video and re-serving that list on subsequent viewings (perhaps for the next hour or day), rather than generating a new list every time a video is opened.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Disabling suggestions altogether saves users the headache of losing a suggested video they wanted to watch, but they then, of course... lose access to suggested videos altogether.
