 Noscript is completely useless unless one bothers to look into the
 settings and fix things up before starting to browse.

 That's not a bug but expected. We use NoScript to get the properties of
 our "safer" and "safest" security mode we want. On the level "standard"
 you should get the most usable browsing experience, which means the least
 amount of website breakage due to disabled features we can provide.
