It's a corner case in the sense that half the document wouldn't be needed if 
the designers thought that was normal.

We aren't dealing with a minimal client.

The server has no per-client state.  It doesn't know if a cookie gets reused.

I'm a privacy nut.  I expect the no-reuse case to be the default.  Seem like we should design for that case.

Why are you fighting so hard for the reuse case?
