Hi Kukla, in version 5, I used to apply all restrictions to white listed sites as well. And forbid Webgl. Now, for Trusted sites (in general, for the bulk of domains), I am being a little bit less restrictive. For Trusted, I am allowing scripts, media, frame and fetch. For domains that I need to allow but want the domain more restricted, I create a Custom rule. I started with one, now I have about 9 of them. They work pretty good.
The NoScript placeholder gives you a hint of what you need to allow when you create a Custom rule. Also, looking inside Custom, the shaded box tells you also whats required. In version 5, I used to tick the option not to show the placeholder, never seemed to needed it or wanted to see it, but I am making good use of it with this version and it has become useful. Webgl, I dont need that for nothing. I have been disabling it forever, not only with NoScript but also in Firefox via about:config.
