Blocking plugin enumeration is major plus
Preventing websites from being able to enumerate plugins denies malicious "browser fingerprinters" a key piece of information used to track you even after you toss your cookies and your Flash cookies. I've taken to keeping all plugins disabled and turning them on only to actually use them to limit fingerprintablity. I will test this against Panoptickick when Firefox 29 has been out long enough to prevent the useragent from coming up as rare.
