[RESOLVED BY STICKY POST] Per-site whitelisting?

First, thank you for NoScript, it's a very useful tool.

There is one itch I have though: how can I deal efficiently with very pervasive domains, such as content delivery nerworks? For instance, I have no problem running scripts from amazon's cloudfront.net when I am visiting a site I trust such as bitbucket.org, but it's another story to allow the domain globally... Same goes for Google analytics: there are sites I want to give my stats to, but others I'd rather not.

Of course, I can allow / forbid sites on temporary grounds using the already provided mechanism, but it's very tedious - did I miss or misunderstand something? If not, what about implementing per-site whitelists? What would be really cool is having a "Allow cloudfront.net from bitbucket.org" option, but I don't know if it's even doable.

This question gets asked so many times that I made a sticky addressing that issue: Site-Specific-Permission Questions? PLEASE READ THIS FIRST!.

Please read stickies, and search NoScript FAQ, before posting -- for your own sake, not just ours. You'll get a faster answer. :)

I swear I searched and missed it. Thank you for the kind answer: I don't know how you managed to keep your cool. I promise I will read your FAQ in full before ever posting again, and I will keep a watchful eye on stickies.

I keep my cool because it's not worth getting upset over it. ;)

Reading the FAQ, at one's leisure, is a good idea for all NS users, *before* an issue comes up. One may learn about features one didn't know existed.

Thanks for posting back, also politely. :)
