Hi Raimo,

Thanks for asking (-:

We've found this erlang:set_cookie/2 function to be very handy in
Operations, to be able to launch a remote shell connecting to nodes in a
collection of clusters, each with different cookies. E.g. someone has
opened a quote in the to_erl shell, leaving the shell "broken" (please,
don't snigger...) in the heat of an incident.

The use case is hardly critical, but the ability to swap cookies will be
missed.

Pete.
