NoScript isn't as safe in at least some regards. There are some places 
that javascript is interpreted that noscript doesn't (or at least didn't) 
control and that javascript attacks could succeed in spite of noscript. 
(The particular example was using javascript in a url after a redirect 
to compromise firefox.)

However, manualling switching between allowing and blocking javascript 
is risky, as it is easy to make a mistake.
