In the latest uMatrix (1.2.0) on FF (57) on Linux, I'm able to toggle the use of WebWorkers on per-site basis. It would be nice to be able to turn the workers off as default (usefulness of this is mentioned in the changelog/wiki) and only allow them where needed.

You already have two equivalent ways of doing this:

  1. Select the global scope “*”, and turn of workers.
  2. Go to the settings page of uMatrix, then to your rules and add no-workers: * true.

Awesome! Thank you @ArchangeGabriel
