Grouping whitelist items by base 2nd level domains

Post by Thomaso »

Hi,

Is there a way to group whitelist items by 2nd level domain names? For example, when you have large number of whitelist items (say about 200), then the whitelist items like these are scattered throughout the whitelist because they are sorted alphabetically among all other whitelist items:

api.xxx.com
chat.xxx.com
forum.xxx.com
mail.xxx.com
video.xxx.com

You don't want to just enable xxx.com because you may not want to have tracker.xxx.com enabled also.

It would greatly speed up reviewing through whitelist if the items can be grouped by their 2nd level domain names like this:

api.aaa.com
chat.aaa.com
forum.aaa.com
mail.aaa.com
video.aaa.com
api.xxx.com
chat.xxx.com
forum.xxx.com
mail.xxx.com
video.xxx.com
api.zzz.com
chat.zzz.com
forum.zzz.com
mail.zzz.com
video.zzz.com

Or even better:

xxx.com (not enabled)
api.xxx.com
chat.xxx.com
forum.xxx.com
mail.xxx.com
video.xxx.com

Thanks!

I meant to say...

Or even better:

xxx.com (not enabled)
--api.xxx.com
--chat.xxx.com
--forum.xxx.com
--mail.xxx.com
--video.xxx.com

Thanks!

I had a similar idea a while ago, a sortable table with the cols "sub-domains", "domain" and "TLD"/"suffix".

Unfortunately, even if Giorgio would like to implement this, XUL does not support column sorting in tables (yet).
