Fast way to clear cookies?
I clear cookies frequently -- often, every few minutes. Until recently, I could leave open the "preferences" tab and occasionally just switch over to it (a few keystrokes) clear all cookies with M-a (one keystroke) and go back (just a few more keystrokes). No mousing around, it was fast.
It seems the current Firefox changed this -- I have to open "Manage Data", but even though the "M" in "Manage Data" is highlighted, it does not respond to keystrokes; the "e" in "Remove All" gets directed to my window manager; and the "a" in Save Changes" causes text in the Manage Cookies and Site Data pane causes text in the pane to be highlighted. And then there is keystroke for "Clear Now", that seems to require mousing always. All the mousing around I need to do now is very time-consuming by comparison.
Is there some other way to clear cookies which is less clunky?

Why can't u use any cookie manager?
For instance:

Those look like useful tools, but neither of them does what I want -- I often have multiple tabs open on a site and want to delete cookies even though I am leaving some tabs open.
I can set focus to the Manage Data button with Alt+Shift+M once or twice until the button get a focus ring and press the Space bar to open the Cookie Manager window,
I tried Alt+Shift+M and nothing gets highlighted. If I press it a bunch of times (I tried all of once, twice, three times, etc.) and then type space, it takes me to general preferences.
Also, I tried to clear cookies on a laptop and the "Manage Cookies and Site Data" box does show buttons for remove selected and remove all, but does not show the buttons to cancel or save changes. Maybe it scrolled off the bottom of the screen or something, but if I try to scroll down then the box disappears without saving changes.
