Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 1.0+dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal
The cookie configurations is very irritating from the point of a user, e.g. if
you want FF to ask you every time whether to accept a cookie or not, you have
to set "Allow sites to set cookies" and then for the "Keep Cookies" setting
"ask me every time". Though, the user will think that the "ask me every time"
is only meant for the "Keep Cookies" setting, ie the user thinks it will ask
him how long to keep the Cookie but now whether to store it or not.
There should be a central selector that offers 3 options "allow sites to set
cookies", "allow the originating site to set cookies", "ask every time whether
to set a cookie".
In addition there should be a single checkbox "delete cookies when i close FF"
to clean everything.
Then, in the dialog where FF asks whether to accept a cookie, it should clearly
display if the cookie is originating from the current web site or not.
Another bad thing is, that you can't open the 'Cookie Exceptins' and 'View
Cookies' dialogs at the same time. This way, I can't see which sites have
stored cookies and add a few of them to be blocked in the future. I constantly
have to open & close those dialogs or write down the urls before.
