Add button "leave site" to warning screen #17

Closed sorgoz closed 12 years ago

sorgoz commented 12 years ago

When I see warning screen and intend to leave it, I have to point to small "close" icon on browser's tab. It takes time, and can be not so easy when > 10 tabs are open.

I'd like to have "leave this site" right on warning screen.

Probably, we need a prototype of design to discuss it.

What would the button do? Closing the tab doesn't work if there are no other tabs open. Going back in history won't work if there are no pages in history or the previous visited page redirects us back to the warning page.

Going to another website is perhaps the best option, but the current page can stop this if it handles the unload event. Is it possible for us to remove the page's possible unload handler before navigating to a safe site? We could always send the user to Safe Search, for example.

Any of options you listed. And if there is no one universal option then it will be a bit more complicated. This is OK.

btw, the first thing i want to think and discuss is a product feature, not a realization. If we decide that feature is good from product perspective, then it is time to think about implementation.

this will be implemented in #32
