https://www.torproject.org/torbutton/torbutton-faq.html.en is outdated.
Cookie Culler
"Kory Kirk is working on addressing this for this Google Summer of Code
project for 2009." Update of this?
Tor Button has not its own cookie management. I think this addon is not
needed anymore.

Toogle feature has been depricated and is actively discouraged.
AdBlock Plus
Move to not recommend list. Has been discussed on tor-talk that it can
harm anonymity.
Request Policy
Probable same reasons not to use it as for AdBlock Plus.
Better Privacy
Remove. There is no more non tor usage.
SafeCache
Sentence "If you use Tor excessively, and rarely disable it" makes no more
sense without toogle model.
Mike ,is safecache still recommend for people who do not close and open
firefox often?
NoScript
Needs to be updated.
NoScript is now installed by default.
Has been discussed.

My conclusion: Disabling it entirely is ok. Disabling on a per domain base
is bad for anonymity.
Are there any other issues I should be concerned about?
Also needs update.
