The short answer is because of "Set-Cookie:" headers, and quoting issues 
with the 'expires' parameter.  The slightly longer answer is that it gives 
the application more control of the response, which may be important to 
work around bugs in browsers, caches, and proxies currently deployed in the 
field.  :(
