Add a way to make some rules optional, at the cost of possible race conditions. This is suitable for annoyance and maybe experimental rules.

For example, there are a large amount of websites that have the same anti-select and anti-right-click annoyance:
https://publicwww.com/websites/%22wpcp_disable_selection%22+%22wpcp_disable_Right_Click%22/

Or maybe it would be better to just allow generic script snippet injection for privileged filters?

*##+js(ra, class|id)

maybe scriptlets need exclude.

For Firefox 57 - 68 ESR / 77 Beta (uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues#942):

*##^script[id^="wpcp_"][id*="_disable_"]
*##^head style:has-text(.unselectable):has-text(/([\w\W]{303}|[\w\W]{286}|[\w\W]{259})/)

as long no generate blank pages.

Oh, right. Script snippet injections can already be generic. I totally forgot that.
I think I just need to add a script snippet that can abort script by ID.

Oh, right. Script snippet injections can already be generic. I totally forgot that.

Just like me and perhaps 100 other people as well, if something is never used it's being forgotten - I didn't found a single *## filter in any uBO / AdGuard list.

Also the WIKI seems to be outdated / confusing, as usual, coz it still says that:

Generic +js filters are ignored: those filters must be specific, i.e. they must apply to specific hostnames, e.g. example.com##+js(nobab)

Perhaps something changed and was mentioned in some old and forgotten comment / commit / release description or somewhere at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

+ for #1116 (comment) for finding out that we can use generic js, however, his soultions for Firefox can be fine-tuned:

As for :has-text(/[\w\W]{286,303}/) is kinda weird

• the starting range is bad, it must be not bigger than 259 so we get ==> :has-text(/[\w\W]{259,303}/)
• the closing range is redundant so we get ==> :has-text(/[\w\W]{259}/)
• further it can be converted to a dedicated solution so we get ==> :min-text-length(259)
• further it can be converted to a single chain regex so we get ==>
  *##^head style:has-text(/\.unselectable[\w\W]{246}/)

As for: *##^script[id^="wpcp_disable_"], script[id^="wpcp_css_disable_"] seems ok, if one is looking for an alternative, can check this one, a shorter and wider (but risky? doesn't seem so but it's better to make sure): *##^script[id^="wpcp_"][id*="_disable_"]

It's not documented in the wiki probably to deter people from using it. It's a really big hammer and things can go wrong if used improperly.

As for the rules, I'll do something different. Looks like this works:

*##+js(nano-abort-inline-scripts-by-id, /^wpcp_(?:(?:css_)?disable_selection|disable_Right_Click)$/)
*##style:has-text(.unselectable):remove()

I do need a whitelist system though, as the second rule has quite a high chance to break things. I'm also considering a specific script snippet for this issue.

[jspenguin2017]

After tweaking the rules, I think this should work and should be rather safe:

*##+js(nano-abort-inline-scripts-by-id, /^wpcp_disable_(?:selection|Right_Click)$/)
*##script#wpcp_css_disable_selection:xpath(preceding-sibling::style[contains(text(), ".unselectable")]):remove()

Either way, let's continue the discussion in the NanoFilters repository.

is kinda weird

this is not compressed enters version, sometimes is not compressed into one line.

303 if someone use Windows Server (CRLF) and if available in view-source.

I'm aware, but in your regex you use ranges wrong way to the actual case (which I realised just now by the way), in your bad regex the closing range is redundant, coz it still will match text that exceeds 303 length, try this to actually make the closing range working as intended and not being redundant: :has-text(/^[\w\W]{259,303}$/) - it will not match text that exceeds 303.
