Comment:

 Agreed, we should update comments in `django/conf/global_settings.py`:
 {{{
 # Whether to set the flag restricting cookie leaks on cross-site requests.
 # This can be 'Lax', 'Strict', 'None', or False to disable the flag.
 }}}

 > As a side note, I understand that using None can also disable the flag -
 not only False, and I think this should be documented (since None was the
 way to disable the flag with Django <= 3.0 - so it should be documented
 that None still works like before).

 Yes you can use `None` but it's not a recommended, we've changed `None` to
 `False` in docs to avoid confusions with `'none'` (see
 [https://github.com/django/django/pull/11894#discussion_r356541094
 comments]) and IMO we shouldn't bring it back in docs.
