Now *here* is a related question:

Does anybody know of a Firefox extension that will allow the *selective*
clearing of browsing history, or management of history expiration?

For instance, I *usually* want a nice long expiration on the history (for a
while, I had it up at 180 or even 365 days), so that the history bar
auto-completer would be able to help me find "that posting on boing-boing that
started with 'potatoes'), etc.  However, I'd like to on occasion nuke all
the damned Amazon links that have accumulated (or even better, have them
auto-evaporate after only 15 days or something).

This ring any bells?
