Steps to reproduce:

Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data > Manage Exceptions

The website list in cookie exception do not have an option to import or export. Adding this would be helpful, especially since Firefox doesn't sync it.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Networking: Cookies' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Maybe it's better to sync it.
I'll change the component to make this request show on Sync team's radar.

Syncing is great. But I'd also suggest to have an import/export functionality as a fallback and alternative options for users who want to opt out from Frsync.

Sync is already tracking this in bug 978010, so moving the component back.
