Your description equating cookies and storage within a document lifetime makes sense. Is this intended to also apply to network requests? The first-party document already has no access to 3rd party cookies so it shouldn't matter at that level if Necko's rules change "live". If I'm on twitter/facebook (which make constant background requests) and I clear my entire cookie jar those documents are going to break. If I just tossed all my cookies that's what I want! Discovering that I'm still logged into those sites would be disturbing. Similarly, if I flip the "block 3rd-party cookies" pref I'm going to react negatively if I still see tracker cookies showing up just because I've left an active page open somewhere.
