Mark, please be aware that noscript has also a whitelist that is not viewable by the user. The whitelist tab does NOT list the hidden white listed entries.
and you know this how?
i do not really believe there is a 'hidden whitelist'. it is more like there are sites that are used to check on sites you connect to. gaggle is one of them. :-P
something you will/may find interesting, open about:config, enter "Search: whitelist" for info on noscript 'whitelist'. if you enter "Search: noscript", you will see that noscript stores one hell of a lot of info.
see pages;
then <ctrl-f> enter "find: whitelist", read all for more whitelist info.https://noscript.net/features#xss https://noscript.net/faq#xss
then open noscript options select Advanced -> XSS, be sure both selections are checked.you should also register here;

to find out more about noscript and ask about 'hidden whitelist'.

Look, I am not trying to discourage anyone from using noscript. I myself do use it. But I do not put my trust in it due to my prior experience with it. If you think it floats your boat, fine with me. No need to beat on this any further.
