Do not want multiple windows to group in taskbar, want two TB icons

2 questions:

1) How can I create multiple taskbar icons to launch firefox? I want two to open normal windows, and a third to launch a private window. (I have a desktop shortcut for private window opening already, but I want it in the taskbar)

2) I do not want Firefox to group multiple windows in the taskbar. I wish for each window to be its own icon. (Not each tab, but each window)

Pre-emptive thanks!

Of course that would be a windows thing instead of a firefox thing. Don't know what I was thinking yesterday.

Thanks!

On Win.8.1 it's as easy as: Right-click in taskbar-> -> Properties -> Taskbar Buttons: Never Combine.
