Clearing browsing data should be possible at a scheduled date or at specific intervals.

Please share examples of how/why you would use this feature, it will help with the implementation of the user interface.

It can be useful for monthly clean of junk files / free disk space

For example, my wife browses a lot of weird or potentially unsafe website because she likes to wonder around on the internet. And she does not like to use incognito mode, and sometimes she clicks links from other software which opens the browser, and they won't open in incognito mode. So I would like to erase all data including history, cache, cookies etc., after certain amount of time (every day or so). Also I would like to preserve some data for some trustworthy websites so she does not have to login all the time.

It would be great if data could be cleared at either specific amounts of time (e.g. every day), or simply on close of Firefox.
