That's a vimb issue. We had a hack in old vimb version to set expire time for cookies received without expire time. So any session cookie (no expire time - should be removed on browser close) was turned into a persistent cookie. Doing this forced webkit to write the cookie information into the cookie file instead of keeping it only in memory and only accessible for current instance. I hope we find a solution for this issue. But for now there is no way to force webkit to store the cookie information in the file. As we can see there are also disadvantages of the paradigm each window is a separate running browser instance.
