I'm not sure what you mean be forge, but if you mean set an arbitrary
cookie manually (vs. one that was provided by the server). just use
add_header() in http://docs.python.org/lib/request-objects.html
It may be possible to use CookieJar for this purpose but I've only
used it for manipulating cookies set by the server...
And I would agree that Python cookie APIs are less intuitive than
what are available in others such as Jakarta HttpClient....
