My Java may be a bit rusty, but it seems that it would filter out the colon. tspecials contains a colon and thus having a colon in the cookie name would make in invalid. I glanced at the Perl code and couldn't find where it filtered out any characters. Would it be better to file bugs against buggy implementations instead of changing Python's implementation to be more lenient?
