The general use case is mostly for scraping utilities that require a 
session cookie, one logs in to the site, then this library can help 
getting the cookie so that the requests including the cookie can be made.

The specific use case is that a next version of instaloader 
(https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/instaloader), a Instagram scraper, will 
probably require this library (the current RC version includes the 
feature that uses this library).

As a matter of fact, I have already done so:

package is in my personal salsa area: 
https://salsa.debian.org/ekalin/browser-cookie3
