If I have a cookie set with a very long value (e.g. sessionid=<very long string>), then the gcli doesn't really help the keyboard-typist-person. Typing "cookie list" and then clicking(!) the correct key/value pair only prepopulates up to "cookie set key ", not the value. Can't you add the current value too, so people can mess with that? Also, why do I have to click in the first place...can't we have tab completion to cycle between possible cookies to modify?

Summary: editing cookies in the gcli is not helpful for long cookie values → please add autocomplete support for editing cookie values and keys through gcli
Triage. Filter on Lobster Thermidor. Nice idea, but it's not been worked on in 4 years, and I don't see that the priority of GCLI has increased in that time, so I don't think we need to keep it on file.
