I didn't see this problem on Firefox unless you seriously minimized your

scrolling off the page and you might not know some things exist.

I can break out roles/default roles into a new menu item?

options, but when you look at Content-Security-Policy, it is quite 
complex and I didn't want to create this huge UI for it.

We can set up some good defaults though.
