How is it implemented, does it refhashlist the grob file or copy original back for boot?

Anyway, I found a solution of sorts, I installed fennec in her device and told to use that for problematic sites.
juiceme,

refhashlist as you know contains the shasum's of many system files including grob...N9QTweak using inception for normal mode users simply uses a script called refhashlist.pl to sign the refhashlist with the new shasum of the modified grob so no MALF as long as you wait for the tweak to finish its process; it can take upto 5 minutes for the signing to complete...

Once refhashlist is signed the changes stick till you flash the device...The tweak in N9QTweak is actually from this thread so you can refer to the thread for further info too

Fennec in all honesty is very slow and a changed UA at least guarantees a better mobile browser experience in the stock browser

Btw if you use a changed UA try iOS instead of Android as iOS allows YouTube playback
