Because we use browser.privatebrowsing.autostart as defense in depth
against disk leaks, "New Private Window" is equivalent to "New Window".
This can be confusing to users who will expect their "New Private Windows"
to be isolated from their normal TBB state, especially since the UI hints
are different for these windows.
We should probably patch Firefox to hide this menu option if
browser.privatebrowsing.autostart is set. This seems like something
Mozilla should be interested in picking up.
