@leocg Yes, [* .]test.com does work, but "[* .][* .]test.com" or "[* .][* .]com" do not.

But that does not help me with my suggestion, because idk which site i will use tomorrow, so I can't add an exception for it.
I want to accept all cookies, but session only, removed at tab close, or maybe window close for no real reason.
The exception are sites that I want to store permanent cookies.

@leocg PS: for the purpose of counting the string "cook" at this settings page, I tried Ctrl-A to select all text, paste it into an editor and count the string, but selecting all strings at that page does not work. Uff

@bariton That search field is for you to search for sites that have set a cookie. So if you want to see Google related cookies, you search for Google.

@bariton Those are incorrect formats, that's why they don't work. The first one is correct, so it works.

@bariton Session only cookies is already the exception, so I guess you can't make it the default behavior.

I know, thats why I described what I am doing.
Using search from menu,
and try Ctrl-A.

I think that's why my original post is in the suggestions section.

@bariton Don't forget to suggest it to Google too, so that can change it in Chromium.

@leocg I was hoping that opera wants to be ahead of chrome. Do you think that the feature I suggested would be helpful?

@bariton Opera is a Chromium based browser, so unless Chromium changes the way cookies are handle, the chances that Opera will do it are very low.

@leocg Thats disappointing, if opera is a 1:1 copy, what is it here for?

@leocg This extension might be an option, but it seems not to be sure if it works with opera. Infos on github differ, possibly related to opera versions.
