Allowing Script(s) Refreshes every tab that uses that script

"Allowing Script(s) Refreshes every tab that uses that script"

This is one of my biggest bugs with NoScript, which is otherwise a great extension. I'm not sure how to change it, which is why I ask here in general discussion... maybe its a development request I don't know... Not sure if it is even possible with Firefox architecture or just hasn't been developed etc.

I'm sure it doesn't need describing why but just incase... With a lot of sites infesting the same scripts like google/analytics/captha code etc... having tab full of lots of other sites(that might use the same scripts) and then coming across a site that is broken without the requirement of a certain script to be temporarily enabled. Doing so refreshes all other tabs, potentially losing any active form info, video stream etc.

Also what is probably the most misleading NoScript menu entry aswel: "temporarily allow all this page" *eek, those other tabbed pages are refreshing.* ..
