You can currently block JS execution per-site, there's no UI for it yet
but this is (hopefully) going to be in Moz 0.9 or 0.9.1.
Mr. Thumbs, on what evidence do you base your claim that "Mozilla
currently treats security as a low priority item?" I can tell you in no
uncertain terms that you are wrong. The security work that goes on for
Mozilla is not often visible to the end user. UI and customization
features for security have taken a back seat to improving the actual
security mechanisms of the browser (keeping your data private,
preventing easy virus propagation, etc) and I believe this was the right
choice. UI is coming soon.
