Private tabs will be automatically excluded when bug 899276 has landed. I don't know off-hand if setting a tab to private works even if the tab has been around for some time but I think that might be possible. > That said, this seems like a worse hack than what I am doing now.

There is no "urgency" but we're currently in the process of rebuilding big parts of SessionStore to make it perform better. Giving add-ons that much access to data makes it really hard to implement any kind of caching. > Can't you fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=930713 before you > remove it?

I understand that this feature seems important to you but I disagree that is a "big lack" in the current API. This is the first time I hear of a requirement like that. Could you maybe describe what you are actually trying to achieve and why? Is there any add-on code we could take a look at? Maybe we can together find a different and better solution to your problem. - Tim > Cheers, > Matt > > On Oct 25, 2013, at 11:40 AM, David Rajchenbach-Teller <dtel...@mozilla.com> > wrote: > >> We have partial handling of private tabs.
