The cookie spec is now RFC 6265
Section 9 contains a wrong claim:

"[...] HttpOnly attribute to the cookie. While this has not yet been standardized  by the IETF yet, [...]"

In fact 6265 is a "Standards Track" RFC, which specifies usage of the HttpOnly attribute, see:
    http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265#section-5.2.6

All references to RFC 2965 should be updated to RFC 6265.

Please note that the "Session Token Profile" is quite similar in scope to:
    http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-secure-cookie-session-protocol
