Anyway...I'm willing to pay a small bounty for someone to get rid of cookie dependency in the management interface.
Doesn't Zope have some nifty session managment features now? I think this session management is server side, why not throw copy and paste data in there?
Session management depends on cookies. :-) I guess the session manager could use the authentication token as the session key, which would work for some situations but not others. Here's another thought: when a session is active, reading cookies from the request and writing them in the response could be redirected through the session machinery, since a session is a perfect place to store lots of cookies. If you combined those two ideas, we'd be able to remove dependence on cookies from all Zope apps, including the ZMI, at once. This could even start as a monkey patch product, just to let people try it out without upgrading Zope. Oh, there's a bounty? In that case, it will be really hard. We'll have draft a design document, elaborate, and write Java + assembly code and test it on all platforms. Wow, it'll take weeks. ;-) Shane
