--------------------------------------------+------------------------
I recently bumped into issues with SameSite=None cookies, and found that
some browsers are incompatible (https://www.chromium.org/updates/same-site
/incompatible-clients).

I think that Django should handle this, because handling this is non-
trivial. For me, I wrote custom SessionMiddleware to work around the
issue.

I would like to work on a fix, if core devs are interested and maybe
release in a next bug fix release.

Comment:

I don't think that Django should include hooks based on user agents for
detecting bugs in old browsers. It sounds like a third-party package is
the best way to proceed.

You can start a discussion on DevelopersMailingList if you don't agree.
