Public bug reported: This is with respect to the gnome-shell-portal-helper, part of the gnome-shell package, which opens its own browser window to prompt for a wifi hotspot login. It all works fine except one little papercut:
Could it remember cookies? So when I go back to the same hotspot most days I don't have to click OK to accept cookies every time before I can actually click to go online. It's possible I suppose they don't all use cookies. The hotspot in question is a BT wifi hotspot, so probably quite common in GB anyway. Desired behaviour, hate to say, is like Windows: It actually remembered my choice from before and just logged me in right away.
