There's no need for this anymore security-wise thanks to First-Party Isolation AKA Total Cookie Protection. Every domain is totally separated.

I couldn't enumerate for you all the things isolated to a container; I am no expert. However, I believe first-party isolation only concerns itself with cookies.

IIRC cache is also isolated, I can't seem to find the blog post now, but as I remember mozilla essentially said that temporary containers are replaced by their site isolation.

So FPI would cover the common need, to completely isolate 1 site from another. Containers would still be applicable if you wanted to maintain separate sessions to the same site. Like viewing a site without logging in, and in another tab doing so.

I've found this good for webdev of course ~

Yep! I use containers for that, quite handy.
