Thanks that's a valid point -- I previously misunderstood the HTTPonly cookie setting to mean restricting the cookie to HTTPS, but that's path-based restriction just now read about HTTPonly (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/HttpOnly).

To be honest though, once there's an unauthorized 3rd party script running on your page, that's a pretty dire already though. I guess it's possible to also protect a little from malicious web addons/extensions though.
