Try as I might, try as I may, I can't seem to get AxKit::XSP::Cookie to
set and expiration date.

Here the relevant code...

<cookie:create name="shopper" path="/" expires="+3M">
  <cookie:value>
    <xsp:expr>$uuid</xsp:expr>
  </cookie:value>
</cookie:create>

Isn't the '+3M' usually interpreted by CGI.pm to yield a real date?
I think you should try and put a date/time in there. Or, patch
A:X:Cookie to interpret relative times (taking code from CGI.pm or similar).

Well, the docs are already misleading somewhat:

<cookie:create>
Allowed only as the child of a <cookie:create> element, this tag

> sets the cookie's expiry date. It accepts the same types values that Apache::Cookie does.

It already takes values like +3M just like Apache::Cookie does.
It also says it's only allowed as a child element.

However, below that is an example where expires is indeed used as an attribute:

    <cookie:create
            name="oatmealRaisin"
            value="tasty"
            expires="+3M"

Either way, I've tried as an attribute or as a child tag with no luck.
