Way to auto Temp-Allow domain on specific site (ABE)?

Was wondering if maybe ABE could be used to do this?

Whenever I visit Twitter.com, nothing works unless I enable abs.twimg.com. I have top-level sites enabled by default so twitter.com gets automatically temporarily allowed. I was wondering if there was some way to tie abs.twimg.com into twitter.com? the idea that whenever twitter.com temporarily activates from my visiting the site, the abs.twimg.com would also temporarily get allowed.

ABE doesn't do anything temporary, but what you can do is permanently allow abs.twimg.com, and then use ABE to restrict it so that only Twitter can use it:

Code: Select all

Site .abs.twimg.com
Accept from SELF
Accept from .twitter.com
Deny
Depending on how twimg.com works, you might not need the 'Accept from SELF' line.
