174792 - Option to block Javascript Blocking of right click

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 86193

(Core :: DOM: Events, enhancement)

Description

[Henrik Lynggaard Hansen]

Some sites disables the right click menu of the browser. They use code similar
to this:

<script language=JavaScript>
<!--

//Disable right click script III- By Renigade ([e-mail])
//For full source code, visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com

var message="";
///////////////////////////////////
function clickIE() {if (document.all) {(message);return false;}}
function clickNS(e) {if 
(document.layers||(document.getElementById&&!document.all)) {
if (e.which==2||e.which==3) {(message);return false;}}}
if (document.layers) 
{document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);document.onmousedown=clickNS;}
else{document.onmouseup=clickNS;document.oncontextmenu=clickIE;}

document.oncontextmenu=new Function("return false")
// --> 
</script>

I would like an option to block these kind of script, just like we have an
option to block opening new windows or change the status text.

Setting severity to major as it disables all context menues in the webpage
