I'd like to chirp up on Dave's point: proxy cookies are very useful for proxy apps which *do* transform content. Which language, for a language-translator; which-profile for a content-filtering scheme, and so on. One current work-around is proxy-authentication (e.g. Lucent's anonymizer), but cookies, now that we have them, seem like a better solution. A whole bunch of examples of "active proxies" are in this paper: http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~adam/papers/csa98b Rohit
