I investigated a bit, it seems the video (in flv format) essentially comes form various sources, and, while it does exist in computer memory, it is not in cache, (or at least doesn't appear to be there) and therefore can't be saved?

Unless it is streamed it is always in the cache and Youtube always caches its output. It's not always in FLV format but you can rename the file extension to FLV and play it in a standalone player if you wish. Usually do a search for videoplayback[n], where n auto increments to 1,2 etc... and sort by date/filesize. The file shouldn't have any extension. Just copy it somewhere else and rename it <myvideo>.flv and play it back at your own leisure.
