Not exactly what you're looking for but there is a video downloader
extension for firefox that works with video.google amongst others:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006

I suppose by reverse engineering the video downloader extension you
could probably come up with a perl/python script to use from the
command line. AFAIK nobodys done this.
