[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#776962: xul-ext-flashblock: clicking does not unblock flash on youtube

[pasky at ucw.cz]

Package: xul-ext-flashblock
Version: 1.5.18-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

flashblock will not properly work on youtube.com (since maybe a month or
two ago).  Clicking the video frame (showing the typical flashblock
icon) to enable flash there will have no effect, whereas in most other
scenarios unblocking flash will still work.  (However, I have noticed
that the click tends to often propagate *within* the flash applet or
gets caught by client javascript maybe, something that also did not use
to happen before.)

Not sure if it's incompatibility of flashblock with new iceweasel or
a change in the way youtube does things - in the latter case, flashblock
should still try to work that around, and I'm setting the severity above
normal since youtube is a pretty common site for people all across the
userbase to visit.
