My comment was mostly to inform others looking at this issue.

WebKit has among the strictest default cookie policies in the industry. We often find that proposals around cookies fail to realize how those APIs or features need to be structured to support a strict cookie policy. If the assumption is effectively no restrictions on cookies, it's very likely the design will not be sufficient. This means the starting point for us would be to see if the proposal you're referring to would even work with a cookie policy like ours or if additional work would be needed.
