I know that Gmail was having a problem with one or another Greasemonkey scripts making too many requests on the server, and that they were trying to block the scripts, but that has since been worked out.

I think developers should design their sites how they want, with Standards and Accessibility in mind, but they should have some type of message acknowledging that visitors will likely do something that might hinder the viewing experience of the site. The message should say that while they respect the users rights to view a website in whatever fashion they please, users should understand that by doing so they may miss out on some functionality or other that is built into the site.
