#601 Block domain/path based on referer

[P. Zaccaria]

Previously it was possible to remove scripts or images from other domains, only on specific pages, by using filters, e.g.:

+filter{no_facebook}
.domain1.com
.domain2.com

FILTER: facebook
s/facebook/===/g

Since https is getting more and more common, this is no longer possible.

A simple workaround would be to block these scripts based on the referrer.
The referrer can be detected using taggers, but if I got it correctly, TAG cannot be combined with +block, just with +filter.

It would be great to be allowed to do something like this:

+block{no_facebook}
referrer_is: .domain1.com

Tags can be used with any action including blocks.

If you enable the referer client-header-tagger for
all requests you can then block based on the created tags.

Note that most browser nowadays provide to Referer
for CONNECT requests used for https.
