266014 - Cookie manager should have a sortable "date" column

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Settings UI, enhancement)

Go to Tools -> Options, then click Privacy, then expand the "Cookies" item, then
click "View Cookies".

The ensuing view has two columns:  "Site" and "Cookie Name".

It would be very useful to add a "Modified Date" column, so the user can sort
the cookies by date, and then shift-select all the cookies set recently and
delete those cookies only, to erase cookies that were just set.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

This is an enhancement request and should not have been auto-resolved.

This is a valid RFE that might be a dupe of bug 162914, which is a core bug. I'm not sure if that UI exists in Fx or in Core somewhere. In the mean time, confirming...

This would be a useful enhancement

The cookie manager is gone.
