I believe that the Cookies tab is behaving incorrectly when used from a 
Private Browsing window.  (Firefox 22, FireBug 1.11.4)

Specifically:

   1. Visit a site that saves cookies in regular browsing mode.
   2. Visit it again in a Private Browsing window.
   
As expected, during visit #2 the actual site cannot see the cookies from 
visit #1 and will save a different set to the private session.

However, if you look at the Cookies tab in FireBug in window #2 then it 
will still be displaying the cookies from #1, even though stepping through 
the scripts or looking at the network requests shows that these are 
(correctly) not actually visible to the site.



On a non-Firebug but somewhat related note: I was hoping that separate tabs 
and/or windows in Private Browsing would have separate cookie 
caches/sessions/whatever they're called (so that cookies saved in 
tab/window #2 would not be visible to a new tab/window #3); but this does 
not appear to be the case.  I'm trying to debug something that would be 
much easier if I could create separate independent sessions, and I was 
hoping that this would work.  Can anyone suggest a working alternative?
