I'm posting this in case anyone else would find simple cookie management in microb useful. It probably works with Fennec as well, but I haven't tried it yet.

I was disappointed that no cookie management was included with the default N900 browser so I tried installing the CookieCuller extension and found the list only showed two cookies at a time making it a pain to use.

I modified the CookieCuller.xul file (inside cookieculler.jar) to make better use of the N900 screen space. After the modification more cookies are visible and it's now usuable (could still use a search function though ).

To install:

Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir.../cookieculler/ with microb, and install the add-on.

Download the attached cookieculler.jar.tar.gz to your N900, extract it, and overwrite the original cookieculler.jar located in /home/user/microb/extensions/{99B98C2C-7274-45a3-A640-D9DF1A1C8460}/chrome/.

Code:
cp ./cookieculler.jar /home/user/microb/extensions/\{99B98C2C-7274-45a3-A640-D9DF1A1C8460\}/chrome/
Create a bookmark to chrome://cookieculler/content/CookierCuller.xul, this is where you'll access your cookies.

Restart microb then load the bookmark and now you can manage your cookies in microb (and also have the extra features of CookieCuller).

Note: I have no affiliation with the author of CookieCuller (Dan Yamaoka)-this is just a simple mod to it. The other attached file is a diff of the original and the modified CookierCuller.xul.
