Improve sticky / stay open menu

I think, it's better to just mark menuitems as clicked/applied to improve mouse positioning. And build actually menu only after next opening.
For now I should "search" each next item to click on them because menu changes a bit after each click.

I don't really understand your request. Did you use an online dictionary to create it? If not, please try one. If so, please try a different one. Thank you.

Sorry, my English is bad, I know...

[ Allow anothersite.com ]
[ Temporarily allow anothersite.com ]
[ Allow site.com ]
[ Temporarily allow site.com ] <- click here

And menu twitches a bit: two items about site.com becomes one:

[ Allow anothersite.com ]
[ Temporarily allow anothersite.com ]
[ Forbid site.com ]

So I should spend some time to move mouse to new position of "Temporarily allow anothersite.com" (and I should search the new position before, this is fast, but...).

And I propose to don't change menu during it opened - just mark already clicked items.
Something like following:

[ Allow anothersite.com ]
[ Temporarily allow anothersite.com ]
[ Allow site.com ]
[ Temporarily allow site.com ] <- click here

=>

[ Allow anothersite.com ]
[ Temporarily allow anothersite.com ]
[ Allow site.com ]
[ Temporarily allow site.com ]

If I understand correctly his idea is that menu entries don't disappear on the sticky menu, they are just marked as clicked-on. This way the positions of the menu entries stay always the same as long as the NoScript menu stays open.

Yes, that's it.

Thanks for interpreting. At first glance, I like the idea.
