right click to remove
Is there anyways someone can make a change to the gui for when you click on the adblock statusbar icon? It would be a great improvement to adblock plus if you could just right-click on something in the list, and be able to remove it from your filters. I have some things on there that are blocked and it is a pain in the a** to search manually through the filterset to find the one that is associated with that image/object. I do not know how hard that would be to impliment, but I think alot of people would love that addition to the prog.

If you click on the blocked Element in the upcoming dialog the 1st filter blocking this element is shown in the bottom text field.
Since 0.5.11 you can even edit the filter on the fly, if you want to.
There will be no way to exclude the current element from the filter, cause you might again unblock other adds. But after you know, which filter causes it, you can decide, if you want to change the current filter (mostly making it longer rather then shorter) or if your want to create a whitefilter unblocking it. Even if you change the current filter, it might be caught by an other filters, so you might even need to change them.
Something as complex as this would be very hard, if not impossible to be automated. Especially cause at no time Adblock has all the information needed.
Just look at filterset-g. It still has sometimes some false positives or missed ads. That is also why Adblock came without default filters. Adblock Plus then included some basic default filters, cause some people did not understand, how to create filters and mcm wanted that even these people would have a basic "protection".
