Need to keep private browsing sessions
A feature would be useful, that allows keeping private browsing sessions, in situations that the user does not want to save history of the session but want to keep the session.

Re: Need to keep private browsing sessions
Hi,
I doubt whether that "feature" will ever be available, due to the fact that Private Browsing means exactly that.
No inf is retained to disc, so once Firefox or that window is closed, the session info is cleared from RAM.
This info is available from the Session Manager author's thread in the Extensions/Themes Releases Forum.

Re: Need to keep private browsing sessions
You can still save bookmarks in private mode. Just save the tabs to a common folder. But doing what you are asking is counter to the purpose of private browsing.

Re: Need to keep private browsing sessions
Use separate Profiles.
A "normal" Profile for "everything".
And a "private" Profile (but not in Private mode) for "private" things.
Now the "private" Profile won't be private, but it will be separate from everything.

Re: Need to keep private browsing sessions
Just uncheck remember my browsing and download history in about:preferences#privacy, so sessions can be saved,
otherwise it's not possible to save private browsing session
or save one session in one folder as bookmarks like smsmith said.
