Taboo is a simple Safari hack which provides a warning before quitting or closing a browser window containing multiple tabs.
You can also disable those annoying warning messages that Safari now presents when downloading a file which contains an application. To do this, simply execute the following command from the terminal, after having installed Taboo:
defaults write com.ocdev.taboo ShouldDisplaySecurityWarnings -bool NO
then restart Safari.
Taboo makes use of SIMBL (Smart InputManager Bundle Loader) to modify the default behaviour of Safari. You can
What's New
Suppresses warning messages if shift key is held down while closing a window.
Now uses CFPreferences to store user settings.
Requirements
PPC, Mac OS X 10.3 or later.
Be the first to recommend a similar software title.
I was using this on the PowerBook but it will not run on my new MacBook! I would like to defeat the 'download contains an application' warning. Are there anyother ways of doing this?
Five months after the previous comment the warning about SIMBL, in the console, is still appearing and no fix has been made for Taboo. I, for one, am suspicious about recent Safari crashes and this message so I am going to delete Taboo for the time being.

console.app says: The plugin /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/Taboo.bundle (com.ocdev.taboo) is using a deprecated interface to SIMBL. Please contact the appropriate developer (not the SIMBL author) and refer them to http://culater.net/wiki/moin.cgi/CocoaReverseEngineering
I emailed the developer, who has not acknowledged or otherwise responded to the report.

It seems Taboo causes Safari to crash occasionally, mostly right after scrolling down a page when multiple tabs are opened in the back.

Great little, but needed app. If it states that you cannot install it because you have an older version of SIMBL, but in reality you have newer version, simply open the package folder and use the Taboo package installer alone.

Taboo is great, it brings Safari a long needed feature.
I can't help but wonder if the developer would be willing to add a feature: the ability to save/restore URLs in currently opened windows/tabs. Every applescript that I've found don't seem to work in recent versions of Safari, and maybe a plugin such as this would do nicely. The plugin might be able to work without relying on UI scripting that can change.
I know that Saft can do this, but Saft is incompatible with Pithhelmet and Pithhelmet's ad-blocking takes precedence in my mind.

Great - just what is needed to move from Firefox. No install or use problems so far. Mac OS X 10.3.9.
Now all I need is Click and Hold to bring up menu functionality like in Firefox to complete the move.
Anyone know how to import saved site usernames and passwords from Firefox to Safari?

Works fine here. I've installed manually onty the plugin (not SMBL). I have other plugins also installed (PithHelmet, AcidSearch and SafariSource). Safari 2.0 and Tiger. Nice add-on. :)
Apparently, the move to Intel has broken taboo. While Taboo works with 10.4.X OS on PPC macs, it no longer has any effect in Safari on Intel Macs. Bummer!
