Once we ship per-window private browsing support, we need to remove the code exclusively used for global PB mode. This bug tracks this project. This basically means removing anything hidden behind #ifndef MOZ_PER_WINDOW_PRIVATE_BROWSING (including removing that flag too.) I'll be working on this on my globalpbdeath github branch. You can follow the progress here: <https://github.com/ehsan/mozilla-central/compare/globalpbdeath>. Once we're ready to land this, I'll attach a folded patch.

sec-review?:I'm concerned that since we are still not multi-process that we need to be concerned that data from PB could leak across when we have one PB window and one standard window. Just want to ensure we have proper eyes looking at this.

FWIW this bug is just about removing code that is not even getting built.
Can't wait to remove a bunch of code from Panorama :)
(In reply to comment #4) > Can't wait to remove a bunch of code from Panorama :) I'm planning to post a patch maybe in a couple of weeks. I'm basically waiting to make sure that there aren't any huge blockers that prevent us from shipping this in 20.

Attached patch Patch (v1) (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
Brace yourselves, this is not a small patch! Most of this is just code removal. Please take a bit extra care on the places that I have rewritten existing code to do proper indentation, or to simplify it. I'm currently doing the last set of try run on this patch and I think it should be fully green. https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=6d99ad0d2a21

Comment on attachment 706949 [details] [diff] [review] Patch (v2) Mike, can you please go over the build system bits here? I don't have anything specific for you to look at but I mentioned this to gps today and he asked me to get a rubber-stamp from you.

Erf, as I was looking at the files one by one, I hadn't realized they were file removals.

Just get rid of this block. This test has effectively been removed for a while...

Yes, that has been fixed in bug 808215.
Unfortunately we can't enable test_prompt.html because of bug 806737.
Sorry, that was supposed to be bug 835904.

We're noting PWPB in the FF20 notes, the removal of global PB is less user facing so no need to note.
