Manual Entry of Container Name via Button or From GUI Dropdown Menu #122

Feature enhancement, Preference.

I understand Firefox about:preferences#containers allows creation of containers. However, I have a few dozen containers thus far and it's a bit tedious to launch that tab, scroll to the bottom, add container, then go to the containerize button, scroll to the bottom of the containers list (which makes the autopopulated !.domain.com disappear) and manually input the !.domain.com rule. (unfortunately the multi-account containers extension doesn't make the process any faster)

So what I've been doing thus far is launching the CSV editor and inputting the following at the top of the list: !*.domain.com , Domain

It would be amazing if possible to add a container manual entry button in the main GUI or near the top of the container dropdown menu by which a user could manually enter a container name and still have the autopopulated rule !*.domain.com present so the user could just select save.

Thanks for your guys brilliant contributions to this gem of a project!

Hi,

I'm glad you're benefiting from the project. This request looks interesting and it's something I would use myself, so there's a better chance I'll take a stab at it. Of course if you write code yourself, you're welcome to contribute.

To anybody else who'd like to implement this, please add the functionality (or make the implementation able to be easily extended) to edit an existing container i.e #60

Cheers

You can always open File in menu bar (Alt+F) > 'New Container Tab' ("B') >'Manage Containers' ("O"). Even if you have hundreds of Containers, I'm sure you can still go there, and then press (End) to go directly at the bottom of the page. And if that's too far well, I'm sure you won't need me to explain how to go back up right?

All these in brackets are keyboard shortcuts.

Once #128 is merged, this issue will be resolved.
