Definitely! I mentioned that in my talk last November and I intend to work through some of the more popular modules listed. However, some installations might rely on the bad behaviour. We'll need to think carefully before submitting patches. Some years ago, LWP was fixed to reject invalid SSL certificates when using https. This made environments more secure, but broke various people's working code unexpectedly. But yes, if anyone (including you and me) finds a module where moving away from HTTP::Cookies makes sense, we should send a patch to make it do so. Tom
