Whitelist bug/problem

The problem in this http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopi ... 032#p59560 post seems to be caused by the whitelist having become to big. With some trouble I managed to have a look in Excel. After removing "http://" en "https://" and sorting it turns out almost all domains are listed three times totaling to more than 4000 items. Is this normal behaviour? Is it necessary? Can it somehow be addressed?
Edit: It seems that (a) the default list is already set up this way (b) after removing the http* entries the more than 1500 items left still seem to be a problem. Don't like to start whitelisting all over but for now it seems the only way. Maybe this list should be managed (for use in the settingsmenu?) in a somewhat more indexed way. (Using Noscript for a long time now. 5 years or more?)

Do you really need so many whitelist entries? Do you use all these sites regularly?
If possible, it might be best to prune that list and use temporary permissions for sites you only visit once or twice.
