ok so you're right in that it does not work correctly here
(idk why i did not catch that), but we can use a sub here

the 'default' contains the 'default' rules, else the regexes would
also not work

what prevents it from working here that it does not like the
reference to the function, so making it a
my $remove_urls_from_attr = sub {}; and giving '$remove_urls_from_attr' 
here works as expected. (i'll send a v3)

yes imho setting the csp is also good, but requires patching http-server
too so that we can set the header there..
