At present if I right-click a link and choose 'Open Link in New Private Window' all is well.  However that is the only choice if I wish to open a second one. 

What I'd like is the addition of a function to 'Open Link in New Tab in Existing Private Window.'

As it is the Panel/Taskbar soon fills with private windows each of which needs closing individually.

i don't program how ff works, but I can't see this as implementable.

1.  what would you want to happen if you have 2 or more private windows?   Offer a choice about which to target?   that only gets more and more complicated. 

Note that to say having 2 separate private windows is TOTALLY LOGICAL.  I can easily think of situations I might want to do so--even though I don't even use private windows. 

I would think the "solution" would be to SELECT all the tabs you want moved and move them all simultaneously to a new private window.  I am assuming that works.

joefiesta, if more than one private window is already open, then The link could be opened in the last active / focused private window (similar, I believe, to how Firefox will already open a link from an external application in the last active window?).
