837496 - Add command line argument to open a private window

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

Firefox has had to support -private for its permanent private browsing mode and therefore uses -private-window for its per-window private browsing, but I'd like to stick to using -private.

Hmm, it looks quite simple to add jump lists support. All I need is a jump list OS...

Attachment: With jump list support

I notice that jumplists work by starting a new instance, so they won't work if you use -no-remote, and I have no idea what will happen to -new-instance ;-)

r=me for the nsBrowserContentHandler.js changes. I'll leave the jumplist changes to Frank (although I did test and it works [but not with "-no-remote" of course]).
