Private window: Can set a website to disabled but cannot enable a previously disabled site #279

When in a private window a website the extension can be disabled on website until the private window is closed. But if a website was set to disabled in normal browsing window it is not possible to enable it for the private window. Example: Some website have a dark theme that can be enabled while logged in, so the extension would be set to disabled for that site. If visiting the same site in private browsing the extension cannot be enabled.

After doing some testing, in private browsing, choosing a method such as stylesheet processor or simple css allows the extension to be enabled on a website that was disabled outside of private browsing. However this change affects the setting for the website outside of private browsing. The setting is unable to be changed outside of private browsing and gets locked in to the setting set in private browsing until the private browsing windows is closed. Then the setting resets to what it was originally set to outside of the private window.
