$cookie service should allow setting cookies that last longer than a session

[jan-molak]

Hi and thanks for all your awesome work on angular.js so far!

It seems like the browser service that's being used by the $cookie service hardcodes the expiration time of any cookie set with it: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/src/ng/browser.js#L287

It would be great if it was made possible to specify expiration time as a parameter when setting a cookie.

Hi Jan. There's a provider drop-in for jQuery-cookie #2459 if you can't wait. This has been an open issue for the last 2 years and will be resolved, from what I gather, post 1.2

Hey Vincent, haven't seen you in ages! :) jQuery drop-in looks like something I could use as a temporary workaround until 1.2 sees the light of day - thanks!

This issue is inactive for almost 1,5 years, anyone has a solution, other than jQuery plugins or "pure" Javascript?

@poliveira89 #10530 should make it into 1.4

It has made it into 1.4!
