It's a practical issue with a simple (demonstrated) improvement. And hints
like this usually fall under "handy at best, harmless at worst" so I see no
harm in and of itself.

That said, maybe I've been listening to PHK for too long, but I wonder if
all these cookie patches aren't just putting band-aids over a fundamentally
flawed system. How many (and how big) cookies do you need to receive before
this priority comes to the fore?
