170680 - plugin downloader window needs "don't ask again" option.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 83754

Hi all
Just a thought: maybe the plugin downloader window (as bought up by, say,
visiting any site using flash w/o the flash plugin installed) should have a
"don't ask again" option. 

This would be particularly useful for flash, where currently moz crashes on
remote displays (bug#58937) when displaying sites using flash. Naturally, one
doesn't want the flash plug-in installed - so you get harassed by constant
messages to download it.

Of course, there's the flip side issue of an idiot clicking "don't ask me again"
and then not knowing how to install the plugin. I think that'd best be fixed by
still having the install dialog come up whenever the plugin's region on the page
is clicked.

I'm using Mozilla 1.1 on Linux (Debian 3.0)
