The problem is with the cookie specification. Web sites can work around this
problem (as they have for years) by using cookies properly. Moreover, I know of
no complete, browser-only solution to this problem short of the white-listing
proposed above. Do you? White-lists of domain names are difficult to manage
and maintain across deployed browsers. What happens when a new ccTLD or gTLD is
added to the DNS system? How do existing Mozilla browsers cope? What is the
process?
