add ons manager seems an ok place for this, i guess it depends on if/how we end 
up using about:permissions
to interact with click to play (revoking click to play, changing behavior for a 
particular site)

maybe add on manager controls global settings (all sites) per plugin and then 
about:permissions 
does site specific ? about:permissions does have an 'all sites'/'global 
settings' piece too though.. 

the above is getting into the weeds of the UX/UI design, but i think we 
absolutely should
have a global (all sites) per plugin default somewhere where a user can easily
control the default behavior for a plugin :)

thanks
ian

Yeah, we could have something in the Add-ons Manager that does something like 
this.
