Description

If I hover a link to a page that requires login credentials, I simply get the login page, regardless if I'm logged in to that page in any of my other web browsers.

Quassel should implement some way to import or add cookies to the Preview Browser.

Even a simple tool as wget can get/store cookies. If it would be possible for me to manually add cookies for a number of sites (like Facebook for instance) specifically for Quassel that would be fine, Quassel doesn't have to access my browser cookies.
