Editing could happen inline or within the right side panel, creating could happen through a context menu and maybe also through a keyboard shortcut like Ctrl+N.

Mike, why was this closed as incomplete? I don't remember the history now.
The storage inspector does allow to edit cookies, but I don't think we have a way to create cookies? Is there already another bug filed for this? I think Firebug allowed this, and people are asking for this in DevTools too. So it might be nice to add it.

I can't remember either... it should have been closed as a duplicate, marking it so now.

Yes, bugs 1231451, 1231452 and 1279602. Basically, Helen says to add a Plus like we have in the inspector and then add a row with default values when it is clicked, probably with a name like new-cookie-randx. The cookie can then be edited inline like any other type and other storage types can easily be made editable too.

Agreed, I will make it a high priority... added to papercuts meta.
