Firefox 3 Adds Per-Site Settings

implement site-specific preference service: It will be interesting to see how this manifests itself, but it looks like Firefox 3 will add support for something I’ve wanted for a long time.

Implement a site-specific preference service that lets callers get and set arbitrary preferences on a site-specific basis.

I complained about this over two years ago.

Here’s what I’d like to see for upcoming browsers: customized browser settings on a URL-by-URL basis. I think it’s time to admit that different sites sometimes require vastly different browser settings to work optimally.

I’ll be interested to see what settings can be tied to a specific URL.

I suspect this is in response to the same feature that Opera added a year ago. It's safe to assume it will have much of the same per-site preferences as Opera.
