Precisely. And some also don't report the cookie before the second page
after the redirect (presumably because they consider it to be the same
request). I think that behaviour only happens with permanent redirects though.

One thing that helps (often, not always) is to make sure that your
Set-Cookie header is sent before the Location header of the redirect.
