Having grabbed the latest shiro-1.10 snapshot  I started experiencing login
issues in the application. Digging in further, I have noticed the following
difference with cookies dropped at login between the earlier code drop and
the newest:
OLD:
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=6fd35335-6dd6-4d37-9813-71264e027bfe; Path=/service;
HttpOnly
NEW:
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=b11cc1ab-d812-44e5-af15-a291bdf3a6d7; Path=/service;
Max-Age=-1; HttpOnly


The difference is the setting of Max-Age=1, which seems like the right thing
to do  according to http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2616.html. Unfortunately
this causes Firefox to delete the cookie and not forward it on subsequent
requests. IE is not affected by this change.

This seems like a bug (even if it really is in Firefox), but perhaps the
devs here have a suggestion to mitigate this.
