The fundamental issue is that protecting the cookie alone is not
enough.  On open wifi networks it's a fair assumption that the
difficulty of active attacks is about the same as the difficulty of
passive attacks.  Therefore you need to provide integrity protection
for most of the request and most of the response, including the
bodies.
