Next you'll tell me we shouldn't be able to disable images or stylesheets on a webpage.
If I want Javascript off on a webpage, I think I should be able to do that. Preferably with a keyboard shortcut or an easily accessible menu option (like Opera), because I agree with one thing (that the OP implied):
I can't be browsing the web, with Javascript disabled, and expect that everything works.
And recently I've been trying to come to terms with the fact that if I'm browsing without Javascript, a lot of things will stop working with no explanation or even an error message. It would be nice, but it's clear one cannot reasonably expect that.
I want to be able to disable JS just because. Yes most websites are well-behaved and use standard libraries and there is not much reason to disable JS, nothing you can't fix in a better way (I also agree often other ways would be "better").
But there are also non-well-behaved websites out there. So I want to be able to selectively enable and disable all types of content: images, CSS, JS, plugins, sound, video, you name it. Preferably all these settings would be saved per site (like Opera).
