Temporarily allow untrusted script issue

If I have a domain marked as "Untrusted", and then select the "Temporarily allow ____" button, that domain is no longer marked as "Untrusted" the next time I open the browser. It isn't allowed, but it is still no longer grouped with the rest of the Untrusted domains.
Is this intentional?

Yes it is.

Thanks for the report, KWierso. You can't tell if this is the intended behavior without asking. It might have been an uncorrected issue or unreported bug. I'm just elaborating on Giorgio's succinct reply.
If you Revoke Temporary Permissions, the domain is no longer allowed, but doesn't revert back to its previous untrusted status, even before a Firefox restart. This behavior isn't a bug, it's a feature because it's more easily discoverable than if the domain were automatically hidden away in untrusted by Revoke Temporary Permissions. If you really want it to be Untrusted again, it's easy enough to Mark it as Untrusted the next time you see it.

Well hopefully in the future if the features discussed here:
