User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; da-DK; rv:1.9.0.19) Gecko/2010033022 Iceweasel/3.0.6 (Debian-3.0.6-3) Build Identifier: Sometimes I just want to check the price or availabilty of some product in a webshop I at other times buy stuff at. When I'm not out to buy anything I don't want to give them the possibility to track me, i.e. I don't want them to set any cookies, but when I want to but stuff (some) cookies are a good thing. The point is that I don't want to check the "use my choice for all cookies from this site", because it depends on what my intention behind the visit to the site is. Although my intentions might change during a session, in most cases it doesn't, so while not perfect, a solution that limits the effect of my choice to the session would be sufficient. As it is probably mostly a question of removing sites from the white-/blacklist and the end of a session, I suppose this is quite tightly linked to bug #378868. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Reproducibility really isn't an issue with enhancements.
