Private tab instead of window

[KMFi]

Functionality to open a tab for privat browsing within a normal window. For when you just need to do something in private mode, but don't won't to open a new window.

Private window, should still be an option.

Idea: It would be great to be able to have anonymous tabs instead of opening a new window, which is usually inconvinient.

Problem: I have my Firefox open and I want to open some page in an anonymous mode. At the moment I have to open a new window, and if I need to switch between my tabs - I have to switch between windows. It`s not convinient when you only need a single (or few) page to quickly load anonymously.

Solution: anonymous tabs are similar to a normal ones, except any page you are opening in those tabs will be opened just as if it was in an anonymous window. Also it should be purple to differ from ordinary tabs.

@axotellix there's a similar idea here on Connect: Private tab instead of window 

If this aligns with what you're suggesting, we can merge the two threads (and combine the votes) to keep the conversation focused in one space. Just let me know 😃

Purple or maybe we can choose the preferred color of the anonymous tabs.

@JonThanks for replying, haven`t seen that thread. I think this thread can be deleted (I don`t know if I can do it myself) as I have come up with the exact same concept. Hope this idea will be implemented one day 😉

@axotellix all good! I'll go ahead and merge the threads together.
