How do I stop Firefox from launching multiple cookie dialogs simultaneously (especially for the same domain)?

I have Firefox set up to "Ask me every time" a third-party wants to set a cookie in my profile. However, when I enter a new site, especially one with many trackers (such as newspapers or magazines), Firefox immediately launches a dialog for each and every cookie of them before I can even click on the first dialog. This is acceptable for cookies from multiple origins, but when several dozen cookies come from the exact same domain, I need to click "Deny" on all of them until the dialogs simply stop responding and I have to start clicking X instead. It would be much friendlier for Firefox to launch only one dialog per cookie domain, and then apply the user's selection to all applicable cookies. Is this something that can be configured, or at least managed through a plug-in?

Separate Issue: Update your Flash Player Version 19.0.0.185
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html Note: Windows users must download the “Internet Explorer” and “Plugin-based browsers” installers.

Note: Edge on Win10 does not use ActiveX version but its own Flash.

See if there are updates for your graphics drivers https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration

If you want to block some of these, an add-on may help. Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
