How do I change the order of context menu items in Private Windows?

In the context menu that appears when I right-click on a link, I prefer to have "Open Link in New Window" at the top of the menu instead of "Open Link in New Tab". I have added code to userChrome.css to make that switch:

  1. context-openlink {
  -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important;

}

  1. contentAreaContextMenu > * {
  -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2;

}

Firefox version 20 added Private Browsing Windows. The above code still works for the non-Private windows, but doesn't affect the Private Windows, so in those I still have "Open Link in New Tab" at the top of the context menu, and "Open Link in New Private Window" as the second item. Is there a way to change the order of these menu items in Private Windows?

Clarification: In the code snippets above, the "1."s are supposed to be pound-signs; they got auto-reformatted incorrectly.
