--- Comment #1 from Alexander Romanovich <alex@sirensclef.com> ---
What are the chances that you'd consider supporting a response header that
would prompt the browser to whitelist certain url prefixes for restriction of
cookie transmission?

i.e. something like:

No-Cookies: /path/to/dir1/*;/path/to/resource

This would be sent with an HTML document, and then the browser would not send
cookies for anything it requests from /path/to/dir1 or for the specific
resource /path/to/resource, while making sub requests from that web page.

The advantage of this (over a rel attribute) would be that it can be taken into
account for lazy-loaded resources/XHR/etc., and might be easier to implement
than setting a manifest in a separate file somewhere a la application cache.
