'''Self Destroying Cookies''' - This one seems to have arrived since last I was looking into Vivaldi & it is the closest thing I can get to the Firefox add-on '''Self-Destructing Cookies'''. It is great, & at last I'm satisfied re. having an add-on that deletes all cookies (not in its white list) as soon as all tabs connected to the same domain are closed. BRAVO! This add-on is very easy to use too.

Beyond that, I can say that Firejail & Vivaldi work seamlessly. You need to start Vivaldi-stable like so: '''firejail vivaldi-stable''' Which is easy in any DE/WM that allows you to enter your own menu commands (I use Openbox where it is simple).
