 Unlike normal firefox browsing mode, private mode cookies do not show up
 via the show cookies menu under privacy settings in preferences. Unless a
 new identity is selected or the browser session terminated the cookies
 will persist. If this concern is not unfounded, then some method of cookie
 scrubbing compatible with private mode may be necessary to avoid
 correlation across site visits/exit changes during a single browsing
 session.
