Have tried a few different combinations on the Download Class List options, but am not getting the results I'd like. Any suggestions? The 'use case' for this:

There is no mechanism within the site to mass-download this information. You'll probably want to look at downloading a website mirroring or scraping utility. I only mention this because by your use of the phrase "use case" I infer that it might have meaning for you.

Thank you, Eric! In the IT-world, typically I ask someone 'why' they want certain data or how they plan to use it. That usually helps me understand if what they want is possible. So, I gather 'we can't get there from here' (not really wanting to use outside utilities). Maybe could be an enhancement request?

I can certainly put it on the wishlist, but I can't guarantee whether or when it might be addressed.
