The Java interpreter is such a slug that it would be nice to have
a whitelist system for websites allowed to load java applets much 
like the popup blocking/allow system.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
This might also have security benefits, although of course applets are meant
to run in a sandbox.

This is basically a dupe of bug 94035. True this specifies a whitelist while the
other mostly leans toward a blacklist, but discussion is focused on the other
bug. Either way we go (or both) there will not be two separate mechanisms, so
better to argue for whitelisting in the other bug.
