RFE : auto-accept of session cookies

[Hervé]

Thanks to all KDE developpers for the great new KDE 3.0 !

But I miss a small enhancement in the way Konqueror handles cookies.

First remember : HTTP is stateless, then cookies were created to track 
session. At that time, a "minor" feature was added : with an expiration date, 
cookies could be set persistent.
Then this feature became a problem, since it was used for "strong" user 
tracking, and cookies were marked as "evil".
Then good web-browsers (as Konqueror ;) ) added a new tool : a cookie manager.
Now you have the choice of completely disable cookies, or manually check every 
cookie before accepting it.

Here is my RFE : the way I'd like to configure Konqueror is :
- silently accept any session cookie, since a session cookie isn't that 
harmful
- continue to manually check every persistent cookie

I really think this enhancement should be easy to add, and so usefull : today, 
this is what I manually do, and it's not so fun.

I have more ideas concerning cookies (like a cookie-viewer button in the main 
button-bar, as the "security" button : you could see currently used and/or 
refused cookies), but this one is the simplest to code with greatest benefit.


I hope someone will catch the idea...
