Currently no way exists to set site-specific policies other than editing a 
preferences file. Need a UI for this.
Guess on target milestone date...

Bulk moving all Browser Security bugs to new Security: General component.  The 
previous Security component for Browser will be deleted.

As a first step, we need a mechanism for maintaining (storing, 
retrieving, testing, removing, adding) site-specific permissions.  The coding in 
nsCookie.cpp which previously handled site-specific cookie policies has now been 
generalized to handle all site-specific permissions.

Steve,
   I'd like to integrate site-specific capabilities storage with the cookie code 
as well, if possible. Some refer to a site (an URL) and some to a 
certificate...will I be able to store per-certificate policies in your cookie 
storage as well?

No, the mechanism as I set it up is for site-specific information only.  But of 
course you could make the certifite look like a pseudo-site and then use the 
mechanism as I implemented it.  Or you could modify the mechanism.
I don't think we'll have time to do this for beta2.
