I don't think FF is much better.

IIRC every new point version I'd get seemed to have moved things like cache info and cookie settings to different tabs, and renamed how things were labelled.

In FF5, "tell sites I don't want to be tracked" is a single checkbox under "privacy", but "advanced->network" has "tell me when a site wants to store offline data". Huh? I understand the tech differences, but it's just confusing, and again, hidden. Two or three minor additions to the nav bar allowing you to block or allow cookies would go a long way towards making users feel in control of this type of data.
