One issue I’ve run into with blocking JS at the browser level is that it also ends up blocking extensions that use JS from working. I would block JS on websites much more if my extensions that use JS could still run.

I don’t suppose there’s a config setting in Chrome that discriminates between the website’s JS and the JS from my extensions?

You can use NoScript to control which domains you want content loaded from and what type.

It's often necessary to allow same-host scripts for extensions or bookmarklets to work. Those some-host scrips are often a considerable part of the problem.
