            Bug ID: 140191
           Summary: WKWebView provides no access to cookies
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: iOS
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: eugenebut at chromium.org

With UIWebView, it's possible to set, remove, and clear cookies using NSHTTPCookieStorage. WKWebView does not appear to interoperate with NSHTTPCookieStorage, and has no API for cookies. This makes it impossible to do things like:
- Set authentication cookies from native code based on native login
- Swap cookie stores for a multi-profile/-user setup

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A, but for example:
- Create a trivial WKWebView app
- Browser around
- Log [[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage] cookies] and see that it's empty.

Expected Results:
Either NSHTTPCookieStorage working as expected (as it did with UIWebView), or WK* APIs for inspecting and manipulating cookies.

Actual Results:
No apparent way to interact with cookies.
