As discussed during the Web Engines Hackfest, it would be great to have a way to add and retrieve (full) cookies into/out-of a running session via the WebKitCookieManager, since that would make it possible to improve the integration between the desktop and apps.

For instance, in Endless OS (a desktop based on GNOME) we'd like to be able to reuse the cookie stored by gnome-online-accounts so that you don't have to login again in your favourite online service from the browser (or from any app) if you already did it in g-o-a, for which this API would be very useful.

I'll be sending a mail to the mailing list in a few min to discuss the details of the proposed API itself, so filing this bug to track the actual work here
