How to tell Firefox "Okay for THIS site to redirect"?

Websites for huge, bureaucratic corporations sometimes try to redirect the browser to other pages. How do I tell Firefox that this is okay -- for a particular website?

See:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
