--- Comment #22 from Carlos Garcia Campos <cgarcia at igalia.com> ---
It's difficult to decide without knowing the main use case of this API. This is one of the reasons why we decided not to add new API to WebKit2 without a real use case, an application needing that new API and hopefully with a patch ready. If the normal use case is getting the list the list of cookies, store it somewhere and then delete a particular cookie, then the most convenient API is receiving a SoupCookie and of course, compare also de value. How is the user supposed to know the domain, name and path without getting the list of cookies before? In this use case I don't expect the user to create a cookie to delete, but use an existing one. If this is not the use case, then of course it's more convenient to pass the triplet, but I would like to understand the use case.
