I'm looking for a chrome or firefox plugin that allows me to have windows with different sessions. It's a bit like chrome's incognito works: if you open an incognito window, it won't share the cookies with the "normal" browser window.
I'm searching for a solution that allows me to create several windows (incognito only allows two: the main window and the incognito window), each with a different session (i.e., without sharing cookies between browser windows).
Any thoughts? I'm using OSX.

Chrome has this functionality baked in: http://www.chromium.org/user-experience/multi-profiles
If you hit settings (command-, on OSX), you'll see a "Users" section. Simply add users to generate multiple profiles within Chrome, each of which containing its own cookie jar, history, etc.

Now that I'm trying it more, it's not exactly what I was looking for, because I'd prefer if some data was shared between users (like the bookmarks, url auto-completion, etc.), but still, it's pretty close to what I was looking for.
