What's this "Forget tab" from comment 0?

Otherwise, is bug 678545 a duplicate of this one?

That tab comes up if you either right-click a domain (the "*" one in this particular case) and select the "forget" option or press the DEL key when the domain is active.

Probably, yes.

Ah. I didn't see this since if I switch to "Cookies only" (which is preselected when using Tools/Cookie Manager/Manage Stored Cookies) there is no "*" domain and thus no "Forget Global Data" context menu entry. I guess this is something that would need to be addressed here, too.
