both require the same inclusionTypeChecking.exceptions addition
Should that exception be default?

But why default?
Yes are those who will be affected by this, just as they would with any other wrongly coded site, but to default it?
(Better that the websites code things correctly so the issue doesn't come up at all
.)

I'm thinking because it's apparently a site used by a significant fraction of NoScript users given the number of times we get asked how to make sites work with NoScript where that exception is the solution.
If this is vetoed as a default exception, I think it should be added to the FAQ, where the question is something along the lines of
I can't watch videos on <some anime site> despite allowing everything in the NoScript menu, but disabling NoScript completely gets it working. How can I make it work without disabling NoScript?

Certainly not up to me to "veto"
.
Yes, FAQ would be nice.
Even nicer would be a more transparent way for the user to know that something like this has occurred - without needing to frequent the Error Console.
Perhaps the NoScript icon could change to indicate (visually) that something "happened", some condition occurred, that you
may want to be aware of. Even page specific & even if for only some set period of time, before (the icon) reverting to "normal". And in situations like this there is nothing apparent that happens, except "the site doesn't work".

Why couldn't it be, if you have good reason?
