It would be nice to allow users to create "trusted tuples" to list small groups of domains that are allowed to share their cookies. For instance: Zendesk, Asana, Jira, etc.
But have each tuple listed still be isolated from the other, only domains listed together in a single list could share a cookie container.
- InCityDreams 4y ago...as opposed to 'nested tuplets'? /fz
- laerus 4y agoProbably that is the use-case for the official multi-account containers plugin.
- TheNewsIsHere 4y agoI tend to agree, but as someone who uses this plugin a LOT, I have some complaints. If I decide I want, say, an Azure Portal container then I cannot have login.microsoftonline.com assigned to a different container -and- configured to automatically open in that container. If I do that, I need to have a combined Azure + Office 365 + anything-I-need-to-authenticate-to-Azure-AD-for container. It’s a good solution but with its lack of flexibility I find it’s too far in the direction of security versus convenience.
- bitwrangler 4y agoI use multi-account containers too, and I like it. This is exactly my point, instead of mapping each domain into a single container, any domain could exist in one or more "trusted tuples" Maybe another way to think of it is like a one-to-many join. A domain would not "belong" to a single container, but have tags to associate with 1+ containers.
- zagrebian 4y ago> small groups of domains that are allowed to share their cookies Could you explain how this could be beneficial to the user?
- 89vision 4y agofor non-dark pattern use cases where it is beneficial from a usability standpoint to share cookies across domains
- zagrebian 4y agoWell, what are those use-cases? That is what I asked.
- Rastonbury 4y agoSSO across multi-domain, Github logins, using Youtube.com and Gmail.com with the same G account. Assuming this is done the same way as existing Multi-containers feature
- bitwrangler 4y agoYes, I think there are some cases where a user might want to opt-in and allow cookies to be shared across a specific set of domains. The main reason I could think of it to allow cross-site business integration to continue to work as (currently) designed.
- emsixteen 4y agoLittle bit of an aside, but what's the use-case for Asana here?
