>>>   My Info:   Win7_64, Nightly 49, 32bit, ID 20160526082509
STR_1:
0. Visit http://example.org/ then https://ya.ru/ to add them to history
1. Open history (Ctrl+Shift+H) from private window
2. Switch to not private FF window. Switch to History window (via Alt+Tab)
3. Select 2 history items
4. Right-click on selected items, click "Open all in Tabs"

AR:  History items opened in normal window
ER:  History items should open in private window


STR_2:  (reference of good behavior)
0. Visit http://example.org/ to add it to history
1. Open history (Ctrl+Shift+H) from private window
2. Switch to not private FF window. Switch to History window (via Alt+Tab)
3. Select 1 history item
4. Right-click on selected item, click "Open in a New Tab"

AR:  History item opens in private window, just as expected, because library opened from private
     window is connected to private mode, and shouldn't normally interfere with normal tabs


Note:  I often use private windows to view some old visited pages and preserve their order in history
