by Thomas, 8 years agoGood to see a e10s and FX57 proof addon to get rid of those pesky cookies. Only downsides in my eyes:
* doesn't clean LocalStorage (known issue with Firefox).
* it doesn't seem to auto-remove cookies when browsing to a different domain (but only on tab-close, active mode is on).
* all cookies are cleared on browser restart (even though some tabs are still open/active, is it considered a new session?).
I will correct if I made any mistakes.

Developer response
posted 8 years ago1. Mozilla is still working on it
2. It's possible to add that but it might break some sites where people set their delay to 0, so it's safer to do it on tab close (with a delay).
3. Browser Start up cleanup only cleans unused cookies (normal Cookie Cleanup) + GreyList cookies, unless you enabled "Clean Cookies from Open Tabs on StartUp", then it's (normal Cookie Cleanup) + GreyList cookies + Open Tab Cookies.
Come make a new issue on GitHub if you need help.
