Subject: options not to store sysop's cookie date
Original description:
Storing session cookies for sysop account could be a problem.

Users could choose to store or not to store his sysop cookies \(or bot cookies, by choice\)

e.g.

store\_cookies = True \(by default\)
store\_sysop\_cookies = False \(by defalt\)
Comment 1 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:19:24 UTC 
Could you explain this request; what is the reason and which problem\(s\) might be appear?
Comment 2 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-10-05 04:19:26 UTC 
I can understand the use of storing admin cookies only temporarily. However, the hard thing is to deterimine how long to store them. At the moment, it is not possible to log in one script without allowing other scripts access, too. Is it worth the effort rewriting the cookie handling code?
