-------------------------------------

Looks like WAGON-269 tried to fix this issue but it has not.  I commented on that issue.

> Kinda related to WAGON-269.  Lots of websites these days (even google) are setting Cookies with domains like .google.com
> The HTTP commons folks disagree with what all browsers do and allow that to match the google.com domain.  I think most folks accept what most browsers do is the right thing even though it goes against what the Cookie RFC says
> I think it would behoove us to use the more relaxed BROWSER_COMPATIBILITY mode as the default as that will lower your support questions when wagon is used against domains that do this kind of thing.
> Patch of this change attached.
