Wait, why would we not also sync these cookies?

This PR is lacking context for why we would make the change. Please add that first

Of course the diff does what it says, so if I knew what we're trying to achieve then I would be able to approve right away.

I'm of the opinion this is a good move to make. We recently published a blog about defaulting to a strong privacy approach.

The superuser cookies are powerful. Syncing them even if they are not needed, seems at odds with maintaining privacy.

Of course, you can still manually copy the cookies over, but this PR is making it easy to do the right thing and prevents proliferation of elevated sessions.
