           Summary: [Curl] Cookies are sometimes not set in download
                    request.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Sometimes downloads are failing for me. I have traced this down to be caused by missing cookies in the download request.
I believe the reason for this is that when the download tries to read from the cookie file, it fails to open it,
because it is already opened for writing by the ResourceHandleManager.

This can be fixed by using the share handle in the ResourceHandleManager to get the cookies, instead for reading the cookie file.
This will also be a performance improvement, as there is no need to read and parse the cookie file all over again for each download.
The multithreading issues are already handled by the ResourceHandleManager.
