Manage cookies in a container

I am using Multi-Account Containers, and am unclear on how it interacts with the other cookie and storage management features of the browser. If I clear cookies from Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Cookies and Site Data -> Clear Data, does that clear all cookies in all containers, or just in "No Container"? Is there a way to delete/manage cookies within just a single container? Is there a way to delete/manage cookies for just "No Container"? Is there a plugin to help with this, or a manual means of editing cookies (editing text file or sqlite database)?

I think that you will need to use a Cookie Manager extension for finer cookie control like Multi-Account Containers.
You can search the Add-ons website.

Thanks! Cookie Quick Manager had the functionality I needed.
