We have a ticket about Decentraleyes:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/22089

And one about uBlock Origin:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/17569

I'm not sure that AutoDelete would be useful, as cookies (and other
identifiers [1]) are already cleaned when closing the browser, or when
using the "New Identity" button.
