Is that really an issue? Javascript is basically universally supported on the web.

Users with NoScript will just have to live without some functionality. I'm sure they are used to that already, since a large fraction of websites use JS for styling. (I use NoScript)

Why should we prioritize OP's use case over that of NoScript users?
