Mozilla browsers previously stored cookies in a text file named cookies.txt. Many other browsers and networking software (Internet Explorer, wget, etc.) subsequently adopted this format. However, Firefox and SeaMonkey no longer use a cookies.txt file to store the cookies, and their cookie managers provide no means of importing or exporting cookies from/to such a format (or any other format, for that matter). Please consider adding the ability to import and export cookies from/to the old cookies.txt format. This will help interoperability with other popular browsers and networking software. (It seems there is a cookies.txt exporter extension for Firefox, though there doesn't appear to be anything for SeaMonkey. I'm also not aware of any cookies.txt importer.)

We expose a WebExtension API to read/write cookies. This feature can be easily implemented by WebExtensions.

This is probably not a solution for SeaMonkey, which does not use WebExtensions (and about which this bug was originally filed). Reopening and reassigning from Core to SeaMonkey.
