(Well, not quite: form submission would need to be disabled as well. Oh, and audio.)

    He says nothing about ads, though most of them depend on scripts, so they'd get blocked as a pleasant side effect
    I think this button already exists.

      Until browsers natively offer a button that stops the infernal HTML5 cr*p from auto playing, it's essential. Especially in an office when you are looking for something and some stupid website launches into playing unwanted video or audio at the entire office. Daily Telegraph is especially bad when I read it first thing with a brew and at lunchtime.

      PS - The correct name for the Chrome plug in is "Disable HTML5 Autoplay"
