Subject: [Tails-dev] TAILS 1.2, capability.policy.maonoscript.javascript.enabled in TB/About:Config
In TAILS 1.2, Inside Tor Browser Settings:

About:Config
Search: javascript.enabled

Returns a new 'Preference Name' followed by the two old/original entries:

New:
capability.policy.maonoscript.javascript.enabled;allAccess

Old:
javascript.enabled

along with

services.sync.prefs.sync.javascript.enabled

which I toggle both to false.

What is this new 'Preference Name' entry:

capability.policy.maonoscript.javascript.enabled

What is maonoscript? Should the 'Value' of this entry be changed to something other than the default (allAccess)? Something like noAccess perhaps? One user mentioned this may be related to NoScript or a particular NoScript setting.

KB.MozillaZine usually documents all about:config options but I cannot find a definitive answer here or any reference to this new value on KB.MozillaZine's site. Some other websites reference it, and a file: "prefs.js".

Is Javascript safely and universally disabled with the two original toggle off options or should this maonoscript option be configured too to shut Javascript off entirely?
