Many users would expect this to be configurable by way of a seperate "Error Console" checkbox! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) Launch FF 2) Configure "Clear Private Data" to clear "History" when activated 3) Launch Error Console 4) Clear Private Data and observe that the Error Console has been cleared Actual Results: N/A Expected Results: I as a user or developer should be able to configure this behavior via a UI preference in the "Clear Private Data" options dialog. The History option should be more granular then just "History". I as a user or developer should be able to configure this behavior via a UI preference in the "Clear Private Data" options dialog.

We'd maybe take a patch, but since this doesn't persist across sessions its not a big deal at all.
