User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040630 Firefox/0.9.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040630 Firefox/0.9.1

please add new option:
silent allow cookies where the lifetime is limited to the current session even 
"ask for each cookie" is activated.

if the browser pop's up with the "allow this cookie"-question my first look
is at the expiring date. if the cookie expires after the session usually 
allways accept it because i see no reason to block it.

Reproducible: Always

network.cookie.alwaysAcceptSessionCookies in about:config to true.

This isn't going to have any UI added for it.

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs,
filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
