Adblock Plus roadmap
This roadmap shows the high-level state of Adblock Plus planning. It is subject to constant change. A new version is generally being released when all features scheduled for it have been implemented and sufficiently tested in development builds.
Adblock Plus 1.2
- Improve subscription selection page displayed on first run – done
- Automatically select the most suitable subscription for user’s locale
- Show the selected subscription only, display the rest of them in a drop-down list
- Warn if the user closes the page without subscribing
- Add “Block media” context menu item for HTML5 audio/video – done
- Improve object tabs – done
- Use a node outside of the document as object tab (in particular, fix bug 12910)
- Don’t hide object tabs immediately, use a delay. Maybe even fade out?
- More information about matching filters in tooltip – done
- Fennec: add ability to disable Adblock Plus on domain in identity panel (tentative)
- Display dependent extensions and their versions in About Adblock Plus dialog (tentative)
Adblock Plus 1.2.1
- Give an easy way to report issues to subscription maintainers
- Investigate a simpler way to attach data to DOM nodes (described by Justin Dolske)
Unscheduled changes
- Add Wyzo support
- Don’t open a new window when user is blocking from the list of blockable items, show filter composer there directly
- Preview for subscription being added
- Better support for data: URL subscriptions
- Support TLD wildcard for $domain option
- Add filter source as column in blockable items
- C++ implementation of core classes (via JSctypes or XPCOM) for better performance (current JavaScript implementation stays there as fallback)
