Sorry, I completely failed to write what I was trying to say there.

I meant that like the session handling functions and setcookie are
similar in that:

* They don't feel that nice to use.
* The exact behaviour of them is currently correct but doesn't cater
for higher level logic e.g. making a script setting the same cookie be
an error rather than accepting it.

Both of them could probably do with being made nicer - but that can be
done in user-land. There's no _need_ to fix them in the core
libraries.

cheers
