This is the way to go for firefox. Instead of copying google chrome, creating new and usefull features.

[gruez → Monkey0x9]

But chrome had this feature as well, with user switching. The only difference is that user sessions were bound to windows rather than per tab.

[callahad → gruez]

I disagree. Chrome user sessions don't share history, saved passwords, bookmarks, or add-ons. Firefox Contextual Identities do.

There are pros and cons to that though. It can be useful to have extensions unique to each profile.

[_phaq → milesokeefe]

Firefox has had those kind of profiles for a long time, they just aren't the most accessible thing in the world. But yeah, you can access them from about:profiles or also via the command-line with "firefox -P". If you want to use it more extensively, there's also extensions available for easy switching, like for example Profilist. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/profilist/

Very nice, I played a bit around with it but there is 1 thing that bothers me. The sliders all start at the left but the value it represents isn't at the left. Some sliders should start in the middle to be right.
