INDEPENDENTLY close Firefox (Standard) windows separate from Private windows

Firefox Personalização

I am looking to be able to INDEPENDENTLY close Firefox (Standard) windows separate from those running in a Private session.

ATM, it does not seem possible to close just one type of Firefox session without the other.

I see this possibly as a simple about:config switch which would allow one to close ALL Standard or Private windows with the respective system tray icon's "Close (All) Windows" OR the Menu's Exit selection. No other behaviors need change.

USE CASE: I frequently use both types of windows and will sometimes close Firefox Standard and unintentionally loose tabs I have not saved in Private.

If you click the 'X' window control on a standard window, private windows don't get closed.

@Ed, thanks for your reply, but not what I am looking for, but yes this does work for a SINGLE window and it's tabs.

I wish not to close a single Window, but all Standard windows and NOT have my Private windows close.

I do not believe that this exists in the design
