 Replying to [comment:6 intrigeri]:
 > Once the security slider controls the global NoScript behavior, maybe
 NoScript's own "Allow scripts globally" UI should simply be hidden instead
 of rephrased? Or did I miss a usecase for this button?

 Yes, see here:

 This doesn't apply if the proposed solution there is implemented, in which
 case hiding NoScript may be a great idea.
