Suggestion: automatically associate a profile with each open tab or window. #8

Here is something that I can do within the "Stainless" browser on MacOSX, and I 
think it would be a good feature to add to swap-my-cookies:

How about if we can associate a cookie profile with each open tab or window? 
This way, when switching to and from these tabs/windows, the profile will 
automatically change.

For example:

1. Set up 2 profiles, "Profile 1" and "Profile 2".
2. Go to an empty tab. Call it "Tab 1".
3. Switch to Profile 1, and then log in as User1 on Gmail.
4. Create a new empty tab and go to this tab. Call it "Tab 2".
5. Switch to Profile 2, and then log in as User2 on Gmail.
6. Switch to Tab 1. I should now automatically be using Profile 1.
7. Switch to Tab 2. I should now automatically be using Profile 2.
8. Switch back to Tab 1. I should now automatically be using Profile 1.
... etc. ...

If this is possible, I think it would be a great feature!

Thanks for considering this suggestion.

This is a good and useful suggestion. I might work on it in the future 
according to the time I have (which is never enough, sigh).
Thanks

Hello, I came to this page to suggest exactly this feature. This extension is a 
great idea for being logged in multiple accounts at once, but is very annoying 
that if I change to another profile I am automatically "logged off" from other 
websites and I have to log in again in them (when I only want to use multiple 
accounts only in few sites), and one time i am logged i have to be continuosly 
switching profiles. I would set priority to medium.
Regards
