Adblock Plus and (a little) more

A new Adblock Plus 0.7.2.2+ development build (2006120813) has been uploaded. This is a release candidate for Adblock Plus 0.7.2.3.

Added Persian translation
Made it harder for web sites to tamper with object tabs
Whitelisting options (“Disable Adblock Plus on …”) no longer disabled when Preferences dialog is open
Added methods addPatterns() and removePatterns() to the public nsIAdblockPlus interface (to be used from other extensions)
SeaMonkey: Switched on a security setting that isn’t used by default for some reason
Made tab displayed by “Show tabs on Flash and Java” a link (because of the context menu and ability to middle-click, bug 15638)
“Show tabs on Flash and Java” can be used without JavaScript again (bug 15637)
Made sure that web pages constantly reloading images won’t increase required memory (bug 15317)
No longer relying on extension version reported by the browser (is unreliable in SeaMonkey, forum thread)
Firefox: Adblock Plus icon should show up at the right edge of the navigation toolbar by default (forum thread)
Increased maxVersion for Songbird to 0.3
Removed obsolete file property from install manifest (not required for Firefox 1.5 and higher)
No longer using event handler for data storage (bug 15758)
Using Gecko’s built-in feature for scrolling to node when selecting in the sidebar — should be less error-prone
Improved check for objects opened on its own (tabs shouldn’t be shown for these objects)
