Details

The "active logins" item in the Clear Private Data options is meaningless to users and will be removed. In the long run we should have a primary UI way to "logout" of websites that will disconnect these / invoke the website's logout method / etc, but since that's pretty far off now, we should interpret certain actions as meaning "disconnect from site X" When a user: - clears their browsing history - clears their cookies we should automatically disconnect authenticated sessions as part of either of those actions.
