[Feature Suggestion] Option to auto remove cookies of a specific container.

[drmirk]

I have set a specific container for duckduckgo(search engine). And from those search results I visit various websites. Some are familiar and have specific container assigned to them. And some are unfamiliar. These unfamiliar website stores cookies, caches etc.

What I want is, whenever all sites of a specific container is closed, then all cookies, caches etc of that container will be automatically deleted.

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

I agree. This should be a high priority feature.

Specifically, I would like the ability to clear caches, manage cookies and website data, etc. on a per-container basis.

For example, for a container "SearchEngines" I would like to be able to clear all data when I close the last tab of that container. Currently, I have FireFox Preferences configured to clear all data on exit. Rather than having to exit FF, exiting a container should be able to accomplish the same thing.

Ideally, opening preferences in a given container should allow the configuration of ALL preferences for that container. For example, I normally proxy all my web traffic through Privoxy. However, it would be VERY nice to be able to configure a container which has different network settings, and maybe even uses a different proxy.

Thanks for the great add-on!!

Agree. Coockies sometimes break in one container only. Would be great if we did not have to clear cookies and other browser data browser wide when this happens.

Possibly you could accomplish some of what you want with the Cookie Auto Delete(CAD) addon:
https://addons.mozilla.org/sv-SE/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/

There is an option to make CAD container aware.
Now, I have only done a few manual tests to remove cookies for some domains but it seems that cookies are deleted on a container basis.
The automatic deletion indeed is container aware in any case.

Hi. This looks like a duplicate of #48 or possibly #318. Please +1 or discuss on those issues so they are more likely to be completed. I'll close this, but feel free to reopen if you think it's a different issue.
