This is your use case, my use case is different.
We are in the process of security review, after an incident of one of 
our clients was hacked.
so after that specific security hole was patched, we are trying to find 
other problems with our CMS.
so I'm now wearing my hacker hat, and cooking malicious cookies and 
requests to demo problems that I find in the code.
so in my use case, the website won't supply these cookies. I need to 
explicitly create them.

Shmuel.
