This is an enhancement request for Tools -> Options -> Web Features.  I request
that the Enable Javascript (and possibly Enable Java) options have an Exceptions
 button implemented, indentical in function to the other Exception buttons next
to the other options in Web Features.  This would allow for whitelisting or
blacklisting specific pages where the user does and does not want the page to
use Javascript.

Example: The majority of the pages I view only use Javascript for advertisements
and bloat.  Many of these pagess have alternative, HTML-only content.  So, I
browse with Javascript disabled.  But, there are 3 or 4 pages that I use on a
regular basis that cannot function correctly without Javascript (Hotmail, for
example).  I would like to be able to whitelist Hotmail so that Javascript is
still enabled for that page only.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
this is a duplicate, there's a few dupes of the original as well.

Not sure, (i guess) this code will need to be writen two times - for firefox &
seamonkey, the mentioned bug is for seamonkey only
the backend code needs to exist first, then we can create UI for it.

way past 1.0 timeline anyway :)
