header cookie is encrypted

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. for "Headers:" enter "Cookie: mycookie=1"
2. submit GET request
3. on server-side examine header for "Cookie" and view encrypted strings

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Not sure about expected-value for server-side header "Cookie", but what would 
cause the cookie info to be encrypted and how can I send plain-text ( if 
possible ) ? 

On what operating system, browser and browser version?
Windows 7 , Chrome Version 35.0.1916.153 m

Please provide any additional information below.
I am viewing headers via F5 BIG-IP iRule log statements.

This is a very cryptic comment.  
Is it saying that Host header will not be supported?  That's a complete 
showstopper for a lot of local testing of domain-based web applications, e.g., 
where the host portion of the URL is "localhost:8080" but the Host header 
indicates the virtual host.  Extremely common use case, and very disappointing 
that it doesn't work in the Advanced Rest Client. 

Compare with curl, e.g.,

curl -H"Host: www.virtualdomain.com" -XGET http://localhost:8080/api/

But still, since web security model disallows overriding this header there's 
nothing I can do. There's no API where I can override this and couple more 
headers.

I'm working on socket's implementation for making a request but until Chrome 
team implement SSL connections on sockets there's no point in doing it.
