Who would have guessed that three decades after cookies were introduced, we’d be getting a new JavaScript cookie API?!

@ryantownsend FYI, Firefox and WebKit will not expose new information about cookies (https://github.com/WICG/cookie-store/issues/238) so you only get name and value keys in the response.

@anthony ffs, I wish people would put this stuff in their release notes at the very least, if it can’t be captured in versioned specs.

@ryantownsend Well… It's more complicated than that. What is a spec? Not what Chrome decided on their own but rather what the consensus decided. And I think the consensus here is clear. Mozilla even gave that feedback 5 years ago: https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/94#issuecomment-496973698

@anthony then why hasn’t the spec been updated?
