Options to delete files downloaded in Private mode or different download folder

more options

Hello,

The purpose of private mode is obvious from its name, then I wonder why Private mode uses the same download folder as the regular mode. It's not so private if files downloaded during Private mode go into an easily accessible and permanent folder. Following the logic of everything else in Private mode, there should be at least an option to have downloads go into a temp folder that gets deleted when leaving Private mode.

Why is there no way to select a download folder from Private mode that differs from the normal mode?

I don't follow this logic.

Firefox by default has a standard download folder if Windows that it downloads to and if you choose different you need to designate that folder at time of download.
