[Mozilla Enterprise] Permissions: Adding a site to allow for location, camera, microphone, notifications?

[Eddie Rowe]

The address bar is probably the first place people look for overriding things.  But the Page Info is something I didn’t know about and nor did our help desk staff so thanks for sharing!

It's not very obvious, but if you go to Page Info (right click, page info), you can change permissions for an individual site.

I don't know why we don't have this option for every permission like we do for popups and xpinstall (where there is an allow button in the dialog to manually add things).

Might be worth opening up an enhancement request in bugzilla.

The Privacy and Security settings allow us to stop the abuse of the end users by “Block new requests…” for location, camera, microphone and notifications.  But I do not see a way to manually add a site that you might want to allow a site to do this other than turning off the option to “Block new requests…” temporarily when visiting the site.  Why isn’t there an option to add a site to the allow list?  Or am I overlooking it? (I turned off all enterprise policies and didn’t see anything.)

The setting “Block websites from automatically playing sound” allows me to have all sites blocked, but then I can add a site and click “Allow”.
