(what? discontinuing or at least deemphasising popups in favor of embedding
ads on the same page as content? I'd consider that a win for the power of
popup stopper et. al.)

Hmm... I use Popup Stopper myself, which does a dandy job of stopping all
"new window" adverts. But I was unaware of anything that would stop embedded
banner ads. Are you saying you use something that does that? I didn't think
that was technically possible without also losing all other images that are
sourced from locations different than the page being displayed
