Please implement part of "Clear Recent History" dialog functionality - allow deleting all cookies and active logins in selected container.

Current global "Clear Recent History" dialog:

Have you tried Cookie AutoDelete? This add-on supports Container Tabs so, it should work with MAC.

I also know Temp Containers has this functionality (logins, cookies & cache clear out), but only for temp containers and not perm containers like MAC.

Thank you for the tip, Temporary Containers is an amazing extension.

I installed both Cookie AutoDelete and Temporary Containers however AFAIK neither of them is able to do deletion in selected period of time (e.g. "Last Hour").

Yeah, that's true, there's no way for them to know the "duration of browsing". It's quite different from FireFox's standard cleaning.

I don't know if TC uses Web Extensions (it's not listed in their GitHub page), but I know MAC, Cookie AutoDelete and a handful of other add-ons use it.

Perhaps Web Extensions aren't able to detect it. AFAIK, Web Extensions can't even handle changing directories using relative path. I learned this from using a different add-on. I thought to myself, "Wow, even the most simplest thing can't be done?" You'd be surprised.

In case you weren't aware: To clear active logins, go to Settings & tick "LocalStorage CleanUp".
And, you can customize that in a way. You can whitelist sites so it won't clear that specific site.

Personally, I just enable auto-clean with it's default 15 second delay of the actual clean. I guess you can also use the official add-on page to see if there's any other add-ons that might actually do it.
