Limiting Temporary Allow all this page to the actioned page

Hi
I have been a regular user of NoScript for many years. Thank you for your hard work
Is there a chance of limiting "Temporary Allow all this page" to the actioned page (domain) only? (similar to ADB's per domain setting)
At the moment, when the command is actioned, NoScript temporary enables common scripts on ALL pages/tabs.
For example, if that page has Google Analytics, "Temporary Allow all this page" enables (and reloads) all other pages/tabs from all other domains that include Google Analytics. This results in not only inserting the unwanted script into other tabs, but having to reload pages on inserting and on revoking.
Thanks

For the current domain only, not (yet?).
But the "reload all tabs" issue
can be easily worked around.

Thanks Giorgio
I knew the feature was not present and I am hoping that it would be implemented ie
"Temporary Allow all this page": In case of 3rd party JS (not belonging to the same domain as the page), it should only allow them for that page/domain.
It would be good to have that.
Happy New Year

An easy way to do this just might be part of NoScript 3

Also, NoScript Options|Advanced|Trusted|Cascade top document's permissions to 3rd party scripts may be similar to what you're looking for, just it automatically applies to any top-level site you allow.

I dont think that is what I had in mind.
I want it to apply to
Temporary Allow ONLY
I believe above setting applies generally
I prefer to keep the trusted list small (for regularly visited sites) and use
Temporary Allow most of the time.
All I wanted was that Temporary allowing 3rd party scripts in one page shouldn't allow it on other pages.

For particular situations, you can approximate that.
Enable Cascade (you've already set 'Reload the current tab only') & then only work in a single window.
When you're done with that "situation", disable Cascade.
At that point, the only things left allowed would be any domains you had (Temporarily) Allowed.
(And again, I feel that Cascade is probably a better, safer alternative to Allow Globally. Not that I'd want Allow Globally to go away, but if Cascade had a context-menu option it would be more discoverable, easier to enable/disable, compared to Options, where it sits now.)
