Really I'm just wishing for a way that I could have "On for all pages" and disable it for specific domains :) Being able to close it on one domain is kind of like what I want (but obviously refreshing does it in).
Anyway, I'm getting tired of complaining about the new activation model. I can't see it ever working the way I would like to use it, so, as in 1.3, I'll just work on getting accustomed to this inferior (imo ;)) model.
