NoScript for Konqueror?

Post by barbaz »

Been playing around with Konqueror lately, and I've noticed that Konqueror seems to have purely origin-based script blocking built in.
Barring time constraints (it's not urgent for me, this can wait), would it be realistic to make a menu GUI for the script blocking and port NS's other features (XSS, plugin blocking, ABE, ClearClick, etc) to Konqueror?

Chrome/Chromium has the same. Doesn't Konqueror have a GUI? I'd be surprised.

Giorgio is working on a Chrome port when he has time, and probably a lot of it would apply to Konqueror (similar rendering engine), but even the Chrome version isn't ready (due to Chrome's limitations), and Konqueror would be an extra project on top of that.

Not last time I checked. I thought Chromium could only block scripts based on URL bar domain?
Konqueror's script blocking functionality seems based on script origin, like the old CAPS that used to be in Gecko.

Yes, but it's buried in Preferences...

OK, Konqueror's blocking is more fine-grained, then.
