I've also thought about this, and my conclusion was that it's simpler to turn off javascript and click "view source" to see any images, files, or text the JavaScript contains. Maybe there's a user script out there that does this, but it feels like a half-way solution to me, more half-way than LibreJS's explicit license approach. But maybe these half-way approaches could be combined to make an almost whole? If it seems useful, LibreJS could contain some code that says "if this piece of JavaScript is nontrivial, and nonfree, then try to work around it by looking at when pieces of text it contains, what images it loads, and display those to the user". -- http://gnuzilla.gnu.org
