Code to check browser behavior wrt. cookie access

Absolutely agree that other browsers' behavior is a key issue here. Thanks for
the hints on creating documents without browsing contexts.

I accessed the cookie of such a document (by loading an iframe, picking its
document, and removing the frame) in Firefox 3.5 and IE8. The test code is
attached. I got the following results:

FF3.5
-----
cookie assigned, no exception
cookie read, no exception
cookiecopy=ASSIGNED

IE8
---
cookie assignment exception: Error (Permission denied)
cookie read exception: Error (Permission denied)
cookiecopy=not assigned

To validate the test, I removed the assignment line
document.getElementById("frame_holder")... This restores the document's
browsing context. I then got the expected results:

FF3.5 & IE8
-----------
cookie assigned, no exception
cookie read, no exception
cookiecopy=ASSIGNED
