 Since several months I use Torbutton instead of other Firefox extensions
 (like User Agent Switcher and RefControl). It even enhance NoScript as it
 hooks dangerous JavaScript code.

 Unfortunately this is only possible when using Tor (or if at least a proxy
 is configured): Otherwise Torbutton switches off. Wouldn't it be nice to
 have the features at hand during normal surf sessions? To not confuse
 regular users an option in about:config would be IMHO sufficient.

 And many thanks for doing a great job.
