Hi Dawit, thanks for your reply, it's really appreciated to get feedback after
so much time. :)
About the option to automatically accept session cookies, at the time I wrote
the patch I thought a bit about possible use cases for keeping it, but didn't
came up with anything really compelling and eventually left it out (there was
some reasoning about it somewhere in comment #9). Actually, the problem was
that it didn't fit nicely. I set the goal to have the same set of policies
available both globally and per-site for cleanliness, and that was an exception
as it was only global.

But I agree that in fact there are possible use cases and it should be
reintroduced. As you are planning to reimplement the feature, maybe you have
some ideas on the best way to readd the option to accept session cookies? As a
global checkbox above the policy panels as it is now, or maybe something
different, even splitting the "default policy" panel into one policy for
session cookies and one for persistent cookies?

Anyway, if you give an indication on what you are planning and you are not
already working on the code, I can give it a try.

Thanks again!
