RE:[w3c/dnt] Add more meta data in the Tracking Status Resource (#22)

Yes that works to inform the user, but I'm not sure you can store the exception and the information in the browser.

Ah but you can explain; there is

explanationString
A short explanation of the request.

in every request.  Since it’s just to explain to the user, this would seem to suffice.

Let’s look at cookies: Firefox allows you to delete individual cookies, but Safari only offers ‘all for a site’ and as far as I can tell, Chrome only offers ‘all cookies and other state from all sites for the past N hours’.
