What would you be able to achieve with this? Asking to make sure if this is a web developer oriented feature or more of a privacy one that would make more sense to be exposed elsewhere

No, It's not a web developer oriented feature, it's more of an "advanced user" feature. I just was reading this https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/Extractors#po-token-guide and thought about if it is possible to do with Firefox and didn't find a way to do this. Specifically the "Export cookies from the browser" step. I reported this in DevTools because the only way to see cookies in the modern Firefox is through DevTools, so, in my thought, export should be in the same place. But it could be done elsewhere.
