 timely fashion?

 I do think it needs to be addressed ASAP, and I did implement my "trust
 MSE videos on this page + reload" solution in NoScript 2.9.5 codebase
 (under development), which is significantly different from 2.9.0.x
 (current release) because it's refactored and split across processes as an
 interim e10s-compatible XUL version before switching to WebExtensions.

 Unfortunately putting this version in a releasable state is taking
 considerably longer than expected, but I hope to publish it in a couple of
 weeks at most, but should I miss this mark I'm gonna backport this fix
 into an ad-hoc 2.9.0.15 release.
