--load-cookies doesn't appear to do anything

[God-damnit-all]

A site I'm trying to back up has a prompt that prevents you from seeing the actual page until you accept the terms. I saved a netscape cookie file with the chrome extension 'Export cookies.txt' and tried both obelisk -c cookies.txt <url> and obelisk <url> -c cookies.txt, and well, it didn't work. Using --verbose doesn't even mention using any cookies.

Using this cookies.txt file:

---

curl --cookie cookies.txt https://httpbin.org/cookies

returns

{
  "cookies": {
    "foo": "bar"
  }
}

---

obelisk -c cookies.txt -o httpbincookies.json https://httpbin.org/cookies

creates a file named httpbincookies.json that contains:

{
  "cookies": {}
}
