  1. jerone, the 3rd method is the one used by http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/26062

  2. this is done now by userscripts.org

  3. What is relatively easy is to do a script that searches the code looking for "potentially dangerous" calls, like http requests, reading cookies, keyboard listening methods, maybe...? for a programmer it should be interesting to take a look what those are doing before installing...

  4. Userscript Updater (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/26062) is doing diff now, it compare changes between the version you installed and the new version.

  5. Also, how could the server maintain the browser's current state of installed scripts? The Updater script 26062 store it in about:config, so it's reasonably tied to the browser. The only way the server could do this is by cookies, maybe? Still I don't know much about cookies, and it's implications...

  6. ...also diff markups to highlight changes

  7. hum, I'm gonna put 3 on this, because sometimes you need to update a script but you want to be sure that the changes are not malicious... each script could save like last 5 versions

  8. featured too

  9. thanks :)

  10. YOu're right, I was just babbling. What I mean was FF addon site to have some sort of favorites. Reinstall 11 addons is a pain...

  11. that's food for thought... also one could choose even moderator permissions

  12. if you wanna make it accurate, you can't count on IP at all... only way i see it's making login required to install scripts...

  13. yep, let's hope it's optional

  14. tags, yeah, sounds nice

  15. I wish they do something like that for Firefox extensions site. I use 11 extensions and have to use search for most of them.

  16. Well you got a point there =)

  17. Nice idea, but remember the dev team that not all scripts use this. I at least don't. I have a script that checks updates by the "last update" info, works easy for all scripts.

  18. nice idea, meanwhile allow me:
    http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/26062

  19. Maybe a "footer color of the day" feature?

  20. yes, I think its good to know what script is a clone and what is original too

  21. I don't quite get this one... Sites change a lot, so does userscripts, that would have a lot of output, but for what?

  22. ya maybe features of the month... or week =)

  23. that's kinda easy to do, upload to imgshack and paste the html code... but I understand some people may have problems with that...
