The debate you're referring to is whether this is exploitable if you block Javascript with NoScript. Most of us don't.
I'd bet most of this community uses NoScript. My wife and family do not. I don't bother installing it on their systems because my experience has been that they simply whitelist everything that "doesn't work".
There's no point to installing NoScript on Firefox used by someone who whitelists a site he clicked on from a spam message because there was an appropriately placed breast, or claims of such of the appropriate size.
