[Bug-gnuzilla] Fwd: Firefox 23 Removes "Disable Javascript" from the Preferences Dialog

[Andrew Roffey]

Although GNU IceCat uses LibreJS by default, I thought some people here 
might be interested in this (I don't think I'm the only person that 
disables JS entirely):

I was testing Firefox Nightly 24.0a1 and have seen only "block pop-ups" 
in preferences dialog and unfortunately they removed "Disable 
Javascript"[1]. This coming with Firefox 23 and probably Abrowser 23 too.

Now the way to disable is about:config or NoScript.
