Comment (by nullishzero):

 pde,

 No worries. If the toolbar menu might not be the right place, let's go
 with the about:config option. If enough people make a fuss, we can always
 add an option in the XUL window.

 yan,

 Yeah, it occurred to me that alist.populate_list is rather inefficient (I
 stress tested the code to make sure it wasn't a show stopper). I initially
 had it cached but ran into issues where the counter might not get properly
 updated if the website loaded any new sites via javascript that
 potentially applied more rules.

 I do think efficiency here should definitely be improved, and I will look
 into a better method.
