Only the Comment field of a cookie is required by RFC2965 to support Unicode -- and several major browsers either mangle or discard cookies containing even high-ASCII values.

Consequently, while some kind of unicode support is appropriate to implement, any program depending on end-to-end support for unicode-encoded cookies is in practice behaving perilously.
