Overwrite or do not allow saving duplicate rules


Posted on Apr 13, 2011 by Swift Ox

Currently if the user does not manually restart after saving a rule, they can open a new tab and browse to the same site, and keep saving rules until they restart.

We should be overwriting old rules rather than appending, where we get "google.xml, google-1.xml, google-2.xml".

A proposed solution to this is saving a session list of hostnames that have had rules written (it will be emptied at each firefox restart). When writing a rule, if the hostname already exists in that array, instead of prompting to "Go HTTPS/Save rule", prompt the user to restart the application (we can do this automatically with Application.restart()).
