Generally, I keep peerblock allow http off.

Not infrequently, I have to right-click and allow http. I try to allow for a 
time, not permanently. (I LOVE that the icon turns yellow, now, when I do that!)

Not infrequently, afterwards, I decide I'm going to go back to that site more 
than once, and need to allow the address(es) permanently.

Normally, I have allowed logging off - I only want to see the exceptions being 
blocked. So I can't see what addresses I just went to, that are normally 
blocked.

It would be useful if there were an option to turn allowed logging on, for this 
time duration of allow http, even though I have turned allow logging off.

Then I can go back through the logs, determine which ones were pertinent, and 
allow those addresses permanently.

Currently, nothing appears in the allow logs.

So:

Settings Request:

Log Window
  Show allowed connections (I keep unchecked)
  Show allowed connections during allow http for # minutes (new option)

Thanks for anything you can do, and for listening.
