But my use of SQLite did in fact drift me away from the key point. I thought that the right "generalization" would be to add extension points to write custom cookie storage. But I never considered making a "share handle" work across processes, because I didn't think it was a reasonable goal.
I don't know if that's a reasonable goal, but I do know that replacing the external storage isn't going to achieve what you've asked for.
You seem to want to replace the *internal* cookie storage with something external, so that several independent processes would read/write to that new thing when deciding what cookies to send and when storing new cookies that arrive over the network.
A common way to offer such funtionality would be to provide callbacks that replace the internal store/retrieve cookie functionality, and then let the application sort out the details of how that should be implemented...
