Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 75915

(Core :: Networking: Cookies, enhancement)

Description

[Tobias Schacht (mail address is obsolete)]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020305
BuildID:    2002030511

I only use Cookies for a little number of sites. (e.g. Google,
Bugzilla, Ezboard, Alltheweb)

Up till now, I probably spent hours with denying sites to set Cookies by
clicking "No", because I don't want to add thousands of sites which
I don't want to set Cookies.

It would be much more effective to do it the other way around:
enter sites that can set Cookies and all other sites' Cookies
are denied.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to site that wants to set Cookies against your will

Actual Results:  need to click "No" if site isn't entered in Cookie-Manager

Expected Results:  only accept Cookies for specified sites and deny other sites'
Cookies
