I was just poked from Triton about a case where our experiment cookie was leaking from foo.com into bar.foo.com.

How would people feel about removing the domain from cookie? My understanding is that this will tie it to the exact host only. The only downside I see (assuming I read the RFC right) is that cookies will no longer propagate from foo.com -> www.foo.com. However it's true that they never went from www -> .

Fine with me.

It looks like it won't fix it for (old versions of?) IE though:
