When regularly blocking cookies, the list of blocked cookie domains can easily reach thousands of entries. This makes it near impossible to navigate the list of blocked domains when searching for a specific domain to unblock.

It would be nice if the server names in the list could be reversed, i.e. "uk.co.amazon.www" instead of "www.amazon.co.uk", thus sorting by the most significant domain part first. Thus, if a domain uses multiple subdomains for cookies, or sets them for a more general domain name such as "amazon.co.uk" instead of "www.amazon.co.uk", it would still be easy to find them.
