A:
[...]
youtube.com, ytimg.com
Youtube, where basic video reproduction may work scriptless, but most other features require them
Well, it seems now, YouTube is making HTML5 player the default for some Firefox users, but YouTube's HTML5 player requires objects from googlevideo.com to be Allowed for videos to play.
As it stands, with NoScript in completely default configuration, currently "most other features" of YouTube work but it requires an extra step to actually watch videos. :?: That doesn't really make sense...

Since YouTube is in the default whitelist, and the default configuration is to have "Apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites too" un-set, could googlevideo.com please be added to the default whitelist in next release?
Thanks

Of course, thanks for the heads up.
