Nope.

Is shockwave flash still a thing?  I thought it died shortly after
Apple stopped supporting it.  If so it seems like all or most of this
could go:
$ grep flash *action
default.action:#     shockwave-flash:     Kill embedded Shockwave Flash objects.
default.action:/(.*/)?((flash)?pop|live(cnt|count(er)?)).*\.(js|php|cgi)
default.action:#.yimg.com/.*/(flash|java)/promotions
default.action:#.yimg.com/a/.*/flash/
default.action:# Blocked URL =
http://l.yimg.com/a/a/1-/flash/promotions/l3/intl/100214/300x250mfeyap.jpg
default.action:# Blocked URL =
http://l.yimg.com/a/a/1-/flash/promotions/l3/intl/100219/300x250mfeya.gif
default.action:.yimg.com/.*/flash/promotions/.*\.(gif|jpg)$
default.action:# URL = http://www.spiegel.de/static/js/flash-plugin.js
default.action:# .spiegel.de/static/js/flash-plugin\.js
default.action: -filter{shockwave-flash} \
default.action: -filter{shockwave-flash} \

along with the shockwave-flash filter.
