[Bug 19028] Support a rel attribute that restricts cookie transmission

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=19028

--- Comment #2 from Kyle Simpson <w3c@getify.myspamkiller.com> ---
I think it's a good addition, but I don't think it'd be fully sufficient,
because part of the desire here is to let an author control what cookies might
be being sent to third-party domains as a result of referencing resources on
that third-party domain.

For instance, imagine a site allows a user to express a preference to not have
any tracking done on their activities, even with third-party ads that site may
use. A site could make sure any such resources would have `rel=nocookie` on
them to restrict the cookies the browser would otherwise set.
