Good article. I must note, however, while he recommends training, he gives
no sources for same. Obviously, many things should be well known to his
immediate audience but I could wish he had included some links or material
itself.
For example, he recommends no-script or an equivalent and flat out states
the user needs training in its use. I count myself among them. I used it
for a while and got so tired of it asking whether some totally unspecified
script should be allowed to run that I gave it up. Maybe there was some way
to get information on which to base a decision but I never found it. Super
tool made useless for lack of information!
