Using Zotero on borrowed computers

SalishSea
Sometimes I borrow other people's computers... my wife's in particular. Of course, while I am using it I often see something I want to capture into Zotero. However, my wife does not want me to establish a storage folder system on their machine and to then pull down gigs of data from the cloud (my Zotero collection) so that I have a local copy of my citation database on her machine. (Selfish woman!)

So, this feature request is for a means by which I could generate a temporary local zotero collection. database from a single firefox session, and then be able to push that collection up to the cloud. Concurrently, I do NOT want to have the cloud sync the whole collection "down" to my wife's PC. Is this possible? Does this make sense?

    We're hoping to offer ways to do what you want (i.e., add items on a computer that doesn't have your Zotero library) in the not-too-distant future.
