Can I disable JavaScript only for private tabs?
Can I disable JavaScript only for private tabs? If not, where can I find the folder to place user.js file?

Why would you want to disable js on private tabs, you know disabling js breaks lots of sites, right
If I want scripts to work, I'll enter via ordinary tab. It's easy and convenient. But for paranoid strict level of anonymity I want scripts to be disabled. Tuning up whitelists or blacklists isn't so flexible and convenient solution.
You could also try a addon such as no script.
Thank you, I took Android version 3.5 from http://noscript.net/nsa/ It's very inconvenient and unstable :-( Better I'll manually edit JavaScript.enabled in about:config every time when needed.
More about anonymity. There is such a thing, as "fingerprinting", which can break the anonymity completely. Here is an article about 2010-year plans of Mozilla team to protect Firefox from fingerprinting: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/firefox-private-browsing-mode-torbutton-and-fingerprinting
But until now I don't see a way to protect Android Firefox from fingerprinting better, than simply turning off JavaScript.enabled at all.
