more easily understandable and manageable cookie management.
a little button with a picture of a cookie that popped open a window showing what cookies were being sent on a page, and what those values are, with options to kill them.
that alone would make it easier for people to understand what the hell data is being tracked about them, feel more in control, and (possibly) prevent stupid legislation from being pushed written by people who haven't the vaguest clue about what cookies are.
