Feature Request - Remember previous JS toggle state after Firefox is restarted

[deant]

I've noticed that if I restart FF, JS is always re-enabled, even if it was switched off previously.

Because restarting re-loads all previously open windows and tabs, this means that they always re-load with JS enabled, which is very annoying: Often unwanted videos start playing, etc. In some cases (if you've turned off JS to block potentially malicious scripts), it might also be a security risk.

I'd like to suggest that the extension should remember its previous state after a browser restart, to fix this problem.

Or at least please disable JS per default at restart.

jondo, while that'd be fine for me, there are probably lots of users who only occasionally switch JS off (for some specific purpose or other) and who would therefore get annoyed if it was always off after a browser restart. So as a solution, it's much better to remember the previous JS on/off state.

But I agree that from a security standpoint, always restarting with JS off is much better than always restarting with it on.
