Switching on/off of FILTER.INI in SitePrefs

I think, that this wish was mentioned earlier already. But it would be a real advantage, if I could switch off the filter.ini for some sites. So it could exist a checkbox in Site Preferences to switch on/off filter.ini for the actual site. (For example in Content tab).

For usefulness I could present this site

(The page have nice (but solid) pictures smile ) The problematical filter.ini item is *banner*

Does that site contain mature content? if so you could advice us first...

We hope to have site specific support for the content blocker in kestrel. The code has been written, but obviously no promises that it will be in kestrel.

Looks like you just need a whitelist for websites. I've tried to make Filter.ini work with that, but the blacklist overrides the whitelist, so it doesn't work. I look forward to seeing it in the near future.

Just a thought regarding future developement.
We have now urlfilter.ini and user.js.
These two enhancements could be merged together resulting in a very powerful tool, let's call it content management(in order to avoid the ugly 'content blocker' expression).
Though it wouldn't be quite a revolutionary invention since such tools already exists for a long time (Proxomitron, Privoxy), once implemented with the according functionality it could offer to the average user a new browsing experience...
How about such an implementation in a future Opera codebase let's call it conquistador, let's say around the year ~2015 wink
Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle: when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.
