Comment (by cypherpunks3):
I can recall needing to enable the canvas stuff on two sites: twitter, to
upload a userpic (it requires you to crop the image using a canvas-based
image editing thing) and some meme generator (which apparently composits
the text over images in-browser).
With the current warning, though, I'm pretty sure the vast majority of tor
browser users would just assume these sites are broken and have no idea
that it has anything to do with that irritating box that always pops up.
So +1 from this anon for a "nevar again" option (though it should still
show the little easel icon in the url bar from which it can be allowed
sometimes).
