Jörg,

	I have looked into this and I just keep finding more issues with it.

1.) The flattr stuff is all off-site. I doubt that that could sensibly 
be made local. Of course it could be cut out but I am not sure if that 
is desirable.

2.) The promotional logos almost certainly have non-free copyright. 
Obviously disabling them would be the most sensible thing but it would 
not be aesthetically enhancing and would not be worth the effort.

3.) The donate javascript is probably non-local for a good reason. Again 
it could be disabled but is that desirable?

4.) The real killer is that the "valid icons", which are currently local 
are actually non-DFSG so I will have to make them non-local.

The request however has real merit. What I would do if I had the time is 
make the source package generate a second package which required only 
local resources. However I don't see myself getting round to it.

What I think you can do, is tell your browser to not load resources from 
w3.org etc. That would achieve much the same goal.

Nicholas
