External content blocking was implemented at the same time. This I =
believe is a useful feature though maybe not for the same reasons.

It wasn't ridiculous, it was all we had before there was the option to =
block=20
external links to block things like web bugs. (I use block external =
links=20
now, but that took even longer to get...)
