I just leave javascript off for usual browsing, with a tab sitting open
in chromium or iridium to turn it on for the occasional temporary need,
or added to the browser's exception list to allow permanently for
certain sites.  This partly because it seems easy, and partly since I 
probably won't know if a browser extension is sold to a malicious entity, or
otherwise compromised (so, seems a smaller attack surface, but still usually
convenient.)
