 Thanks, that's better. There is still the scary http: in red which should
 not be relevant for .onions either. Additionally, the expectation here is
 that onions over http:// on medium level security can actually run
 JavaScript etc. because http:// is secure for .onion domains They should
 get treated as loaded over https://. Could you address those two items for
 Tor Browser users? (I am fine opening a new bug for the latter if you
 like)

 A general note, while testing rc11:

 1) After installing it in the browser I needed to click twice on the
 NoScript icon until the page related info showed up. On first click only a
 small empty menu was visible.
 2) After restarting the browser it takes like 5-10 second until the
 NoScript icon gets clickable at all and CPU of my laptop gets eaten
 meanwhile. There is something computationally heavy going on in the
 background here...
