Thanks to @JetSpiegel I just became aware of Policeman. And I am not sure why you are nervous about RPContinued. So, I went ahead and created a wiki for this: https://github.com/UprootLabs/gngr/wiki/List-of-request-blocking-software https://github.com/UprootLabs/gngr/wiki/List-of-request-bloc... If there are any known issues with RPContinued or there are other extensions that are not listed, please feel free to add them. Thanks.

What is the mysterious "switchboard" column?

  That's used by the phone company to patch you into the NSA.

  The name for the concept comes from the name of the HTTP-SwitchBoard extension (predecessor to uMatrix). It's skeuomorphic. The extensions which have a switchboard like interface enable the user to block requests based on the request's domain name, the primary frame's domain-name, and also the type of request. In contrast, extensions like NoScript have a global switch. If I allow scripts from DontBeEvil.com, they are enabled on all domains. They don't prevent XSS attacks, for example. If there's a better name for this concept, please do suggest one.
