      A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
      Whenever an application is blocked, one has to manually go to the Java Control panel and add that exception.
      In my company specific use case the site we access generates URLs on the fly. These URLs are long and dynamically generated (lots of numbers). Since we can't even select the text, it becomes a very time consuming task to add these exceptions sometimes to find out that a new URL has been generated in the time it took us to add the exception...

      At least, allowing us to copy paste the links into the security exceptions would go a long way.
      A button 'Add exception' would be awesome.

      JUSTIFICATION :
      In order to carry out our commercial activity, our company needs to use said site. Sometimes we miss deadlines and thus business opportunities because of this.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      When an app/url is blocked due to security reasons, allow us to add exception via conveniently available button.
      Or, at least, allow us to copy paste the URLs.
      ACTUAL -
      When an app/url is blocked due to security reasons, we have to manually insert very long URLs which have all kinds of weird characters. There is a big change of error. And we have to start the process that got us to that stage all over again, which is also long...
