Ur/Web doesn't support any interaction with cookies in client-side

Is this because Ur/Web signs all its cookies and doing the signing and
verification on the client side is a security problem?

No, it's because said feature didn't seem necessary to implement so far (you can always hoist the cookie reads into the server-side code, referring to their variables in client code), /and/ the implementation strategy for deserializing cookie values so far happens to use server-side-specific code (direct generation of rather imperative C in the Ur/Web compiler), so it's not a quick job to extend to client code.
