Description

pushing 'cancel' or 'rebuild' one at a time is tedious

In the meantime people could use something like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tabsubmit/ and middle click the cancel/rebuild buttons, which makes it a little less tedious.

There's also the python API I developed which can be used to make the process much easier:

This is a big improvement, but it actually triggers the popup blocker after you do it enough times!  Even after I told the popup blocker not to block build.mozilla.org, it still blocked the popups after I opened a lot more, for whatever reason.

s/a lot more, for whatever reason/exactly the number which I have as the value of dom.popup_maximum/.

there are enough workarounds for this, I don't think it needs to be in the main API
