Domain value returns by getDomain()

[Philippe Mouawad]

Hello,
I would like to know if it's a bug or regular.

In the below Test case, we have a cookie which domain attribute is "domain=.
bt.com"
But the built cookie by HttpClient return "bt.com" , it's explicitely in
the code of BasicDomainHandler#domainMatch.

I suppose it's voluntary right ?

Thanks in advance.
