Summary: BaseCookie does not support "$Port"
Initial Comment:
Sending a cookie containing $Port to python's Cookie.py
causes this exception:
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/Cookie.py", line 621, in load
self.__ParseString(rawdata)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/Cookie.py", line 646, in
__ParseString
M[ K[1:] ] = V
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/Cookie.py", line 437, in
__setitem__
raise CookieError("Invalid Attribute %s" % K)
CookieError: Invalid Attribute port
For RFC2965 compatibility more keys has to be added to
the Morsel class in the same file.

Why do you want RFC 2965 compatibility?
I'm not trolling; RFC 2965 is dead as an internet protocol (except as a
basis for implementing the older cookie protocols, as RFC 2965 +
compatibility hacks -- but $Port is not relevant in that case). The
authors of the RFC gave up on an effort to publish errata to the RFC, due
to the complexities and the lack of interest from the internet at large.
AFAIK, $Port is not implemented by browsers (except for maybe Opera and
lynx, IIRC). It just never caught on.
