The reason I ask is... I got really disappointed (this is the only true disappointment) when I tried to use the browser and figured out it was not storing any cookies, specially the ones that hold sessions authenticated. So every time I would like to use a service, boom... had to log in again.
The browser is not out of beta, and never will. It has been part of the Beta features since it was added to Kobo firmware. Which was at least 10 years ago. It is very much a secondary function on the device. And the support reflects that. Kobo does fix problems, but, not necessarily quickly.

The other thing is that this is a relatively primitive browser. But, I would have said it supported session cookies. Cookies are not saved between session, but, I have been able to sign into some sites and keep working. I just tried the Kobo book store and that worked. Overall, the site doesn't work very well in the browser, but, I was able to sign in and continue. It probably depends on the site and how it does this.
