Stop distracting Noscript icon updates when loading page

I keep being distracted by the Noscript icon in the toolbar changing state when I click a link. As the page loads the icon changes appearance to reflect detection of scripts, sometimes ones that are blocked. Often the icon ends up in the state it was in before I clicked a link, this making these icon changes a pure distraction. I'd just remove it from the toolbar except I need to access it often e.g. when repeatedly having to temporarily allow permissions for a page to get it all loaded.

Suggestion: delay update of icon until page is fully loaded, sort of how web browsers wait to render page until they think it's loaded or it's taking too long.

Where do you draw that line?

The very nature of JavaScript is that it could attempt to do something new at any time.
