Description

It would be useful to use variables when setting userid_domain. In my case we have a multidomain configuration, with multiple subdomains, and the cookie should be valid for the top domain.

Ex: The domain is foo.bar

We have this subdomains: www.foo.bar and images.foo.bar
When I access to www.foo.bar, userid send me a cookie, only for "www.foo.bar" domain. Inside the index.html of www.foo.bar there are some <img ...> pointing to images.foo.bar. When the browser try to get these images, it gets another userid cookie, because the domain has changed.

If I could tell userid_domain to set cookie domain to "foo.bar" this problem should disappear. After all it was the same user.

Now, if I use variables in userid_domain this is what happens:
In vhost config:

set
userid_domain $mydomain;

I get this Set-Cookie header:

Set-Cookie: atr_ut=wKgBglJw9HQPZBr0AwMDAg==; expires=Wed, 29-Oct-14 11:58:44 GMT; domain=$mydomain; path=/

Thanks.
