85621 - [RFE] Block animation in GIFs from one site

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 160678

(Core :: Graphics: Image Blocking, enhancement, P4)

Description

[Morten Poulsen]

An option to block animation in GIFs from one site (just like I can block them
from loading at all) would be nice.

Over to imagelib.

Seems like a useful feature; confirming.

Might be nice to add this kind of functionality into the "Image Manager"
dialogue, because right now, not a lot goes on there (can only remove sites,
can't add sites manually, can't prevent/allow sites from doing anything other
than load images).
Include permissions to load certain kinds of plug-ins as well as this RFE and it
would be _heavenly_.

This isn't quite a dupe of bug 160678. While that one is a request to be able to
"right click on an image and stop it from animating," this one appears to want a
dialog to appear with something like:

"This page contains an animated image. Allow animation?"
[ ] Remember decision.

While I don't necessarily think that implementing both requests is a good idea,
the bugs certainly aren't duplicates of each other.

Recommend reopen.
