The Servlet API has no remove cookie API. If you use a Valve, you can
remove cookies using Response.getCookies and then remove from the list.
But this is not really the problem here since the same site thing is added
when the cookie header is generated. You can extend the CookieGenerator to
add more flexibility for your use case maybe ?
