Hi Lang, could you please provide information on how to use the addon for downloading images?

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Gesturefy from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gesturefy/
2. In Gesturefy options go to Gestures
3. Go to Save image command and set a gesture
4. In the advanced settings turn off the Prompt Save as command
5. Save this image or any image with the gesture previously set in a normal window: https://i.imgur.com/jqBVSTI.jpg - It shows up in the Downloads Panel
6. Save the same image or any image in a private window - it doesn't show up in the Downloads Panel, but it shows up in the Downloads Folder

When you do this, does a download indication appear in the non-private window?

Yes.

I was able to reproduce this issue on Firefox 61.0 (20180621125625), Firefox 62.0b4 (20180628175621) and Firefox 63.0a1 (20180628220051) under Win 7 64-bit and Mac OS X 10.13.3
The download indicator is displayed only in the normal window when downloading an image.
Please see the attached video.

I also want to mention that, I can see the downloaded image in the Downloads panel.
I'd like to stress that the main concern with this bug is not the download missing from the private downloads toolbar, but its appearance on the non-private side. Still affected in Firefox 83.0.
