 Would be great to remove all cookies frequently if trustworthy cookies are
 easily protected, but it isn't helpful if the "Cookie Protections..."
 wizard always shows them as "false".

 I can open up "Cookie Protections...", set useful cookie protection to
 "true", then leave the wizard. If I immediately open it again, it will
 have forgotten which cookies I cared to protect - making this feature
 close to useless.

 Unlike #10824 I unselected Torbutton's own "Don't record historyâ" switch
 in Privacy Settings (I don't need to distrust my own computer or fear law
 enforcement). Have not checked what happens if I flick that switch since
 in that case I would expect it to indeed not persist the choice of
 cookies.

 I am using TBB 5.0.7 from the gentoo torbrowser overlay. install.rdf from
 torbutton xpi says I am using 1.9.3.7.

 Thanks in advance for looking into this, Mike. Was great meeting you in
 Berlin!
