..not good enough IMO, entering a new site, I like to decide how to
treat the first few cookies before I make up my mind on the site, that
required going back and forth between the "these few" and "all sites"
menus, I decide to ban or not depending on how I like each site's
cookie policy.

..uh, between windows, no longer sure if I ever have moved tabs
between instances.

..on my todo list, I used Pan for news, and Sylpheed for mail, I like to
keep these well apart.
