Jamal, please don't mix coding style and real changes.

Have one patch that adds the user cookies and one that cleans up the
coding style stuff.

Thanks.

I will separate those changes (gives me an opportunity to make

Having said that: Is this rule really cast in stone?;->
I have seen many other people (including myself) sneak in whitespace
changes and other trivialities in a general change. I thought the rule
was to not do such things for bug fixes.
