I'm sorry if I'm misunderstanding this but it appears to me after reading a few
of these emails about this back and forth that this is Exceptionally illogical,
to the point of being "HUE HUE HUE HUE HUE"
forgive me, but in all seriousness, NoScript literally does exactly that if not
perhaps even better. that's the "temporarily allow scripts" button in NoScript.
also it's a security risk to temporarily allow ALL javascript and quickly
disable it again because that would take away the users ability to control what
happens in that short instant. why in the name of god almighty anyone would
ever want to create a hole like that is beyond me.
unbeatable rules: everything disallowed by default, only enable specifically
what you want to allow, ONLY WHEN you want to allow it. and that's how NoScript
does it.
what are you even asking for? reading your emails has caused my brain to
liquify and pour out of my nose.
