Yeah, just use NoScript.  They probably killed it because that's what
anyone who used that checkbox really wants.  Makes sense to me.

NoScript isn't as safe in at least some regards. There are some places that javascript is interpreted that noscript doesn't (or at least didn't) control and that javascript attacks could succeed in spite of noscript. (The particular example was using javascript in a url after a redirect to compromise firefox.)

However, manualling switching between allowing and blocking javascript is risky, as it is easy to make a mistake.
