The idea behind this patch is that we are dealing with a third-party WFS service that sits behind an authentication scheme that uses a set of cookies for authentication. This patch makes it much easier to work with the service. Earlier I had to download anything I wanted from the service myself and then feed the results to GDAL. That was neither elegant nor fun :-)
