Download animations and dock support

I love Firefox, but ever since switching to a Mac, I can't get over the download progress bar under my "downloads" folder and the little animation Safari does when I download. I know it's a very minimal feature. I also love Topsite as well on Safari.

These features are great, but Safari has more not going for it than it does, so of course I'd prefer to use Firefox than Safari.

My question is this, is there any way (threw extensions or other) to make Firefox show a little animation for downloads and have a progress bar of that particular download in the dock? Dock support and animations is what this is about yes I know.

It never hurts to ask.

I'm assuming no?
