Build ID: 20130104151925

Steps to reproduce:

I switch on Firefox in normal mode and logged in google.com. I open the cookies from Optiones -> Privacy -> "remove individual cookies". And I record the values of the cookies. Then I switch to "Private Browsing", login to google again and open the cookies from the same menu. 



Actual results:

The cookies I see are the same as before. i.e. The cookies menu is showing the cookies from the normal mode, before I switch to "Private Browsing".


Expected results:

Is this a bug or a feature that you are not able to see the cookies during "Private Browsing"?

This sounds like the same issues described in bug 823941. Yes, it's a legitimate problem, but it's not a particularly high priority to be fixed either.
