WebKit (not only the GTK port, but other ports, such as WKWebView on
macOS as well) doesn't expose an API to disable cookies, or provide a
default place to store cookies.  The application is always expected to
determine the location itself.  (It defaults to being disabled, but once
the location is set in a given WebKitWebView, you can't turn it off
again.)

However, we could make custom.el suggest suitable file locations for
this type of option.  I'm not exactly sure how this would work, but it
ought to be possible.

Thanks.
