i mentioned last week i'd be going in to rework the cookie persistence stuff a little.
now that i've taken a little longer to review the code, i think it is actually useful, but
needs more abstraction from "cookie nature". as i'm doing this, i'd like to preserve
as much of the original capabilities as possible. has anyone out there written code
that makes use of something about a Cookie other than its name and value? if so,
what did you use and why? my thought is that form components really just persist
string values in the end and so i'd like to remove all the Cookie references as well.
the advantage here is the original intent (now that i remember it!), which is to give
users an easy option for implementing form component value persistence without
using cookies. this idea was a security thing and seems useful still, but i think the
Cookie details should be hidden since the only purpose of a cookie is to provide
a value for a String. at a later date, we will be able to easily implement a form
component persistence manager which persists to a database (which won't, and
shouldn't, have any of the Cookie details).


any comments?

thanks,
