Want to clear my sync data on the sync cloud, so that I can start anew with different sync choices, which won't get mixed in with the existing data?

Currently, in Firefox 46.0b9, I can only delete the account which is fine, provided I can recreate the with the same email address and password.

hi ineuw, you can also change the account's password which will clear all sync data stored on the server as this is the only key able to decrypt that data...
