Actually, this is implemented in a rudimentary way in IE 5.x, with their
"zones" of security. If you're interested, take a look at Mozilla's M13
milestone release. It allows fine-grained control of cookiees, with its
"Never Accept Cookiees" domain/site list. It also gives the user an
intuitive interface to actually browse their cookiees. (Look in the Wallet
section).
