Comment (by teor):

 A similar issue exists for the Medium-High security level.

 I suggest we reorder the sentences as follows:
 * JavaScript is disabled by default...
 * JavaScript performance optimizations...
 * HTML5 video and audio become click-to-play...

 Users might be asked to enable JavaScript by websites that need it. So I
 suggest we put the JavaScript descriptions first.

 Should we also modify the JavaScript performance explanation on High?
 * If JavaScript is enabled, performance optimizations...
