LYNX-DEV Re: Number of cookies

[Jason Baker]

I just looked over the draft for Cookies, and I noticed the paragraph (p 
14):

"User agents created for specific purposes or for /limited-capacity devices/
 should provide at least 20 cookies of 4096 bytes, to ensure that the user
 can interact with a session-based origin server."

(Emphasis mine)

So, it looks like there's an out to prevent Lynx from gobbling up close
to a meg for cookies, but it would probably lead to the persistent opinion
of Lynx as a second-class browser....
