I can't presume how far you plan to handle the multiple cookie
headers, but should you handle "Cookie: name1=value1, name2=value2" as
two distinct cookies (like comma separated headers defined by the HTTP
RFC), it's good to know that most (if not all) user-agents won't,
mostly because applications (cookie setters) won't either quote
Set-Cookie values or attributes containing comma (double-quotes were
not defined with cookies version 0).

As a consequence, the above is commonly considered a single cookie
named [name1] with value [value1, name2=value2]...
