Instagram profile URL does not download all Reels and Highlights in bulk (only feed grid content)

I have already used several commands with gallery-dl to download Instagram media, but the only thing it downloads in bulk is the content that appears in the feed grid. In the Reels tab, it only downloads videos if I use the specific URL from the Reels tab. As for highlights, they can only be downloaded one at a time, meaning one highlight per download, instead of downloading them all in bulk like the feed. Example: * Highlight 1 contains 2 videos * Highlight 2 contains 50 photos In this case, I would have to download each highlight manually, one by one. I know this is not a simple feature to implement, but it would be very useful if the program could download everything using just a single profile URL: * feed * reels * highlights This is because sometimes a reel may be hidden only from the feed grid but still remain available in the Reels tab. I personally tested this on my own profile: I posted a reel and hid it only from the feed grid, but it was still available in the Reels tab. When I used the command I normally use, gallery-dl could not find that reel. However, when I used the specific URL from my profile's Reels tab, it downloaded it normally. If possible, it would also be great to implement: * automatic folder creation for Reels * automatic folder creation for Highlights * automatic detection of the number of highlights on the profile * automatic downloading of all files from every highlight
