Yes, all cookies would stay in COOKIES.
SIGNED_COOKIES would be a lazy dict-like object, not a plain
dictionary. It'd only unsign all cookies if you iterated its keys or
values.

But I just realised it doesn't cover the case for using a different
signing key (or extra signing data though).

I think I now prefer Simon's request.COOKIES.get_signed(key) method
(which could handle different/extra signing data).
I really don't like the term "unsigning" (and therefore don't like the
method name unsign_cookie) - it doesn't explain what is happening
clearly.
