I don't like this idea. It seems like it would be clutter on the UI. I
would prefer if there was some way to have a whitelist of trusted
sites. If a site tries to use {offline storage, desktop shortcuts,
plugins, external protocol handlers (maybe except mailto:), automatic
file downloads, ...} then ask the user if they want to "trust" the
site ("enable advanced features"?). That would take care of a very
large percentage of sites like this one and the one there was a thread
about earlier.


Incidentally, on Linux, all the page does is freezes and becomes
unclosable, either by close button or (chrome's) task manager. I had
to pick out the chrome process with highest CPU usage (excluding the
master process, which I assumed was the one with the lowest pid).
That, while not nearly as dramatic as the effects apparently are on
Windows, is still irritating. Can something be done about that aspect?
