Re: [feature] open certain domains into a private window
For Android, we have been discussing building a feature like this around tab queues (the new open later feature we've been working on), but I don't know of any desktop plans for something like this. I agree the UX/product work around this idea could be tricky, so I'm not sure dev-platform is the right place for this discussion. I would encourage you to talk to Javaun about new ideas for private browsing, since he's the product manager leading our private browsing 2.0 initiative.

Re: [feature] open certain domains into a private window
I don't know if this helps, but I use 2 Firefox Add-ons that do an almost expected behavior (with respect to the request in this thread). 1. Profilist https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/profilist - creates multiple profiles. 2. Private Tab https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/private-tab - adds a Open in New Private Tab / Window context menu option that opens the links in Private Tab / Window. No, I didn't create these add-ons and am not trying to promote them for more downloads. I'm only trying to help. Hope these satisfies your expectations.
