Description Chris Rebert 2015-07-05 11:42:26 UTC 
Spec section: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/rendering.html#hidden-elements

> The user agent is expected to force the 'display' property of noscript elements for whom scripting is enabled to compute to 'none', irrespective of CSS rules.


Can't this just be specified via CSS instead using the `scripting` media feature (http://dev.w3.org/csswg/mediaqueries-4/#scripting )? Something like:
```
noscript { display: block; }

@media (scripting: none) {
    noscript {
        display: none !important;
    }
}
```

Erm, rather, make that:
```
@media (scripting: none) {
    noscript { display: block; }
}
@media (scripting: enabled), (scripting: initial-only) {
    noscript { display: none !important; }
}
```
