            Bug ID: 140205
           Summary: WKWebView does not provide a way to set cookie accept
                    policy
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: iOS
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: eugenebut at chromium.org

Summary:
With UIWebView, it’s possible to set the the cookie accept policy using -[NSHTTPCookieStorage setCookieAcceptPolicy:]. WKWebView does not appear to interoperate with NSHTTPCookieStorage. This makes it impossible to let users decide if they want to accept cookies or not.

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A, but for example:
- Create a trivial WKWebView app
- set [[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedCookieStorage] setCookieAcceptPolicy:NSHTTPCookieAcceptPolicyNever]
- Browse around and see that cookies are still accepted

Expected Results:
Either NSHTTPCookieStorage working as expected (as it did with UIWebView), or WK* APIs for setting the cookie accept policy


Exposing -[WKProcessPool _setCookieAcceptPolicy:] as a public API will be perfect solution:
