I Still Need to Block Zooming Images
I have sensory processing issues, and zooming images and flashing lights hurt and trgger my migraines.
I have a number of tools to disable different kinds of animation, but I still need tools to disable flashing menus that pop up as I try to navigate a page, to disable zooming images such as many online maps, to disable the way many sites expand or contract parts of their setup as I try to navigate, etc. And I wouldn't need so many tools if standards didn't enable so many pain-sources by default.

On pages that you visit frequently it might be possible to come up with style rules or possibly consider extensions that can hide content permanently.
- Block Content (img,css,js,...): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/block-content/
- Nuke Anything Enhanced: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nuke-anything-enhanced/
- Remove It Permanently (RIP): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/remove-it-permanently/
Firefox might also offer reading mode on some web pages.

I don't think that there is much to do about fly out elements that open if you move the mouse over specific positions on a web page. Best is to keep the mouse pointer as close as possible to a screen border (left or right).
I've recently moved the scroll bar to the left side and keep the left Firefox border at the left screen side, so I can move the mouse completely to the left if I want to operate the left scroll bar.
You can set the layout.scrollbar.side pref to '3' to place the scroll bar at the left side. See:
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.scrollbar.side (default is 0: user interface)
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
Block Content looks useful, but doesn't seem to have any middle ground between blocking all stylesheets, and incidentally certain zoom effects, and blocking none.
I have to keep the scrollbar on the right, otherwise it would bump into other stuff. Unfortunately, I am using a Mac and can't make it wide enough to be practical, though I am considering tools to help with scrolling.
