Firebug uses a whitelist and a blacklist.
Sites are added to the whitelist when you open Firebug;
Sites are added to the blacklist when you turn Firebug Off with the
button in the upper right corner.

So don't open Firebug on gmail.com; if you do then turn it Off.

Of course not. I guess that the 1.4 solution will work extremely well
for you. You don't have to do anything on sites you don't want
Firebug. And on sites you do want Firebug, just open it.
