LittleSnitch keeps telling me that FinderPop is trying to inject some code in the Finder. Since I trust FinderPop, I should be able to make that an exception (or a rule). Well, I can't. The only way is to disable code injection alerts altogether, which would leave the door open to malicious apps.
I don't think I can ask the FinderPop developer to change the way FinderPop interacts with the Finder, when he knows and I know that no harm is done or intended. So it's up to LittleSnitch to smarten up.

The preferences for CODE INJECTION ALERTS are global, and not specific for each item.

I agree this is a problem that limits the usefulness of Code Injection alerts. Default Folder is another mainstream app that gives lots of injection warnings. I'd like an "allow always" option for individual trusted programs, such as Default Folder, to work without all the warnings.
