I made a post about this before the release of 1.8.2, but unfortunately it didn't make it in for some reason. Rails ships with a cookie_performance_fix.rb[1] file for this very reason. Hopefully this will be picked up and be part of the next release. Ruby could really use a Trac installation to keep track of patches (and bugs).
