The per-url activation model works for most people. I was thinking of a 
option (off by default) that would switch the activation model from 
per-url to per-domain. When the per-domain model is activated, as soon 
as FB is manually open or closed on a page, it is closed or open for all 
pages on that domain.

They can keep the per-url model on.

I guess that would be a good option too, but that's probably more 
complex to implement, and more complex to explain.
