Thanks David. I would like to just mention that I have previously raised 
several of those remarks against the cookie spec(s):

  - the inexplicable different syntaxes for the two ends. I seem to be the only
    person who insists that this is still a bad idea for a spec and I have
    accepted my defeat.

  - which octets should be allowed in identifiers and content - even very
    recent 6265bis edits have changed these so right now I can't even say where
    we are.
