[Seaside] How to set/get cookies?

[Tim Mackinnon]

Thanks - that #requestContext was the bit I was missing.

Is this documented anywhere obvious? I searched all over to find something and couldn't easily discover it. None of the tutorials dig into this, nor the Seaside book (I guess we could get it updated as I think seaside still has legs to it).

Possibly we could put a comment in WACookie - as I found it? Or maybe a more e2e test?

I can see WACookie and WARequest has a #cookieAt: method - but I’m missing the key piece about where in your application lifecycle you can access these things to store for example a user preference (without going full hog with a database).
