The option "Off for all pages, except" is already implemented.  Here
is how you use it:

First, please note that you do not need to select any option to cause
"off for all pages", because Firebug is off by default. So the only
part you need to concentrate on is "except".

To create an exception to the "off for all pages" rule, do the
following:
     1) open the site you want to debug
     2) press the firebug status bar icon.
Firebug will open and put that site on the white list. From now on
that page will be "except".
