Are there any plans to update the security of cookies to the settings

Being able to have different levels of acceptance/denial of various
cookies was, at least *I* though, a great idea.
Perhaps you missed this thread?
"Disappointed in changes to cookie management SM 1.1.18 vs. 2.0RC1"
The fact that something has been discussed a lot here does not mean the
user community is satisfied with the outcome. Whether you're talking
about the Form Manager or the Cookie Manager, there are a lot of people
out here who miss the old functionality and want it back. You can say
"no" until you're blue in the face, but that won't change what people
want. If you recall the history of computer software, a lot of programs
have lost market share or even failed entirely by telling the user he
absolutely can't have what he wants and the programmers know better what
he should have. Hell, this isn't even peculiar to software -- it's true
for lots of products of all types.
I keep meaning to upgrade to 1.1.18 for the security fixes, but I'm in
no hurry to "upgrade" to a program that doesn't do important things that
I've come to know and love in v. 1, and I certainly won't be out there
promoting v. 2 to my friends by bragging about the lost features.
You may not like it, but the truth is the truth, reality is what it is,
and facts are stubborn things. These are features the users want.
