208508 - Javascript Site Whitelist/Blacklist

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 207807

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

A certain few sites (particularly proboards.com) now utilize javascript to force
non-standard code and a kludge to force an annoying immoveable pop-up <div> if
it does not detect a pop-up window as open.

As such, I think it would potentially be a helpful addition to add a blacklist
for user-selected sites on which no Javascript should be run, just as there
currently is a whitelist for Popups.

This may also be beneficial in the case of certain sites that run particularly
annoying and slow javascript functions that are not necessary for viewing the
website.

Reproducible: Always
