Detailed Description

SerialCookie
SerialCookie supports arbitrary objects as cookie values. All
values are serialized (using cPickle) before being sent to the
client.  All incoming values are assumed to be valid Pickle
representations.  IF AN INCOMING VALUE IS NOT IN A VALID PICKLE
FORMAT, THEN AN EXCEPTION WILL BE RAISED.

Note: Large cookie values add overhead because they must be
retransmitted on every HTTP transaction.

Note: HTTP has a 2k limit on the size of a cookie.  This class
does not check for this limit, so be careful!!!
