[Maf] Saving as mht archive

Hey Laeb,

Adding a context sensitive MAF menu is a good idea. I'll try to 
incorporate it for the next version. I'm going to update the website FAQ 
and add an entry for your bug, as it's not exactly a bug. The issue 
isn't with the MHT encoding or MAF creation, it's with how the page is 
saved. Basically the url you specified dynamically modifies the page 
using javascript (document.write). When the page is saved, it's the page 
*after* javascript has modified it. When you open the saved page again 
the javascript is run *again* and now there are two elements (the one 
that was created the original time it was run and the new one) that look 
exactly the same in the page. If you disable javascript before you open 
the archive, you'd see it doesn't happen. I'm thinking about adding a 
preference that somehow disables javascript (or at the very least 
document.write) for pages opened from archives. Thanks for the feedback.

Regards,
Christopher.
