There are obvious privacy concerns -- I feel they can be alleviated with the proper level of control for the user. Currently in our prototypes, the browser prompts the user for each request, which they can allow or deny and then remember that preference for subsequent requests from that domain.

I actually think it's easier to design a UI for this than many other things we might ask the user about. Explaining the impact of setting a cookie is rather hard. However, one example of the UI could be:
The website skyhookwireless.com wants to know where you are. Firefox thinks you are [ Home: XX Heene Road, Enfield, London |V] Tell skyhookwireless.com: (o) Nothing ( ) To the nearest kilometre ( ) To the nearest 100m ( ) As precisely as possible [ OK ] Gerv
