1748422 - Set path of manually added cookies to root instead of URL path

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Storage Inspector, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Sebastian Zartner [:sebo]]

In https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/manually-setting-cookies-in-firefox-devtools/89455 it was requested to set the path of manually created cookies to the root, i.e. /, instead of the current URL's path.

I think this makes sense, as it is much more common that cookies are set for the whole domain in comparison to a specific path.
If someone really wants to restrict it to a specific path, this can be done via the inline editor.

The code that currently sets it to the file path is https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/996a2cafe472e9934b8cb91db63050f96d8a59cb/devtools/server/actors/storage.js#939.
