 I would like to be able to browse site B with the same exit and cookie jar
 etc as it would use if site B resources were included from site A.

 Usecase:
 * site A is archive.is (which is useful for bypassing cloudflare captchas)
 * site B is archive.li (which uses cloudflare itself, and is where
 archive.is hosts its images)

 Lately I frequently see broken images on archive.is. When I right click
 and view image, sometimes the image loads and sometimes I get a captcha. I
 think I've solved the captcha and subsequently had images work on
 archive.is, but now that isn't happening and in retrospect I don't know
 how it could have because it would be violating the tab isolation feature
 if my captcha solving with archive.li in the location bar was able to make
 the broken images start working on archive.is.

 So maybe there is some edge case where this feature is broken already, but
 I can't reproduce it.

 But in any case I would like to be able to temporarily disable the rules
 (or perhaps be able to specify that I always want to use the archive.is
 context when archive.li is in my URL bar).
