Description

Enables private browsing.
If enabled, no data should be stored for cookies or cache on disk, so it's cleared when web viewer is destroyed.
Default is non-private mode for the web viewer.

For WebKit 2.x, it looks like you can't change mode after web viewer was created. Use WebView.SetUsePrivateBrowsing for this.

Examples
