Enable proxy per private tab/window

Open nhantrn opened this issue 11 years ago • 3 comments

Hi, Can you add a feature to automatically turn on proxy just for private window/tab. The normal tabs/windows would go through regular connection.

It looks difficult to implement... And since Private Tab doesn't handle page loading, it's better to do this in another extension.

Also see https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/foxyproxy-standard/reviews/442310/ (this is from here: https://forum.mozilla-russia.org/viewtopic.php?pid=606196#p606196)

Hi, well, the first is already on our ToDo list but the second is much more tricky as there is no proxy per tab interface provided by Mozilla and there are requests which stem from Mozilla/Firefox internal code that are not even associated with a window. I've opened a ticket in our bugtracker though to collect ideas how to route around these obstacles.

I've cooked the extension for this purpose - Proxy Privacy Ruler

Seems cool, @JustOff. I'll give it a try
