Feature Request: "Allow Javascript Globally" only for x min.

[Cimba]

I like ths from Comodos Firewall and his "Installation Mode", which goes to the previous save setup after x minutes.

I whish, NoScript has this for the "Allow Javacript Globally", that NoScript returns after x min. to the save setup without Javascript and an additional choice, if the actual page loads again without Javascript or only for the following pages (my favour)

I use the "Allow Javacript Globally" from time to time and then, i forgett to switch back to often and with the x min. returning, it would be much safer for me .

Not sure if I want to add more clutter to options.
At this moment, though, the most similar thing you've got is noscript.tempGlobal about:config preference: if you toggle it to true, "Allow scripts globally" will last only until you restart your browser.

OK, interesting tip, better than nothing

But why not use the noscript.tempGlobal for this? FALSE, TRUE and x min.? Just an idea.

With apologies to Giorgio for stepping in here and if he feels I am out of line please delete the post but as a developer myself I have to add a little something to give a bit of perspective if nothing else. For most people the addition of a feature seems to be a simple, put this in there like this or can't you make it do this or say this or like this or like that. I have heard things like, its only an extra checkbox, or its only an extra variable; but from the actual programming perspective of it, there is A LOT more to it.

Not always, granted, but most of the time it requires a rewrite or a serious modification of a code logic, regression and tie ins with other portions of the code to make a "simple" request work or function properly or efficiently and it is often not a reasonable risk for the developer to go tweaking the code which could lead to serious introduction of flaws in the core function just to add a feature that serves very little, or low priority benefit. Not to say that the developer won't consider it or do it but I think there needs to be a serious understanding of how much work actually goes into coding and "adding" features.

Personally, I would love to see a feature like this, although given how often I restart my browser, the current provided setting pretty much does the same thing for me but just wanted to add that its often more complicated to add a small tweak than it is to add a whole new feature. Perhaps not in this case, a pretty solid logic block should be able to take care of this but would require a timer hook and several other things that might even be a hindrance to the performance. Sorry to go on so long, just saying.
