Description

Issue by jrudolph Wednesday Feb 11, 2015 at 13:53 GMT Originally opened as https://github.com/akka/akka/issues/16855

If configured, the store would automatically pick up cookies from responses and add them to requests. Also, it would make sure that the security rules about which cookies to apply in which situations would be applied.

This is part of the bigger initiative to support a high-level HTTP client interface as tracked as #16856.
