According to your profiling data, NoScript is contributing nothing to the delay
2nd wild guess: what about disabling ABE outright?

No difference.
Got it! It's the Windows theme that makes the difference.
Windows (7) "Aero" & all is fine.
Change to Windows Classic & the delay becomes apparent.
(Windows 7 Basic is unaffected, but Classic & High Contrast are.)
I run Windows Classic.
(Sorry, but Basic sucks. Aero sucks. They're just not me.)

You're right!
I don't know about the OP, but I could definitely reproduce on XP and Fx 3.5.16.
After profiling a bit, I found that the problem is Window's Classic Theme + Firefox (SeaMonkey?) default theme causing textboxes and textareas to take an insane amount of time to be initialized. Since NS 2.0 and above implements internal editing for ABE rules, it exacerbates this (Firefox's? Windows'?) bug, which is present anyway.
Interesting enough, switching to a different browser theme (Lavafox, in my case) cured the symptom.
Not a NoScript bug, however.

Well, well, well... What about a workaround? Why 1.9.x.x does not have the problem?
Is it possible to make 2.x.x.x work in the same way?

Because has less options requiring text boxes.
