When activating adobe flash "this time", I have to click twice unnecessarily

more options

For security reasons, I have set the flash plugin to "ask every time" (or similar - I am using the German version). Now, after I have clicked to activate flash, I am asked a second question "Activate this time" or "Activate for good" . This alternative should be integrated in the first "question" - which should not ask "Activate flash", but ask "Activate flash this time only" or "Activate flash for good".

If your version of Firefox works the same as mine, if you click a link in the page to activate a plugin, Firefox drops down a dialog from the plugin notification icon in the address bar. I think it was designed this way so users would learn to look for icon and use it to activate or block plugins. But like you, I don't always remember to do it that way.

If you want to suggest that the in-page dialog be changed to have those choices, you can submit your suggestion on the feedback site (feature change suggestions tend to get buried here among the crashes and other support issues).
