I've been working on an extension that checks for certain URLs in page content and lets the user put a button to automatically put these into the download manager. I've gotten everything I need, but how do I actually tell Chrome to put the URL into the download queue?

You can't, its not supported yet. There are no extensions for Chrome download manager.

Yes you should be able to do that, that would be a nice neat trick.
