curl is a command line tool, is this application then adding headers with -H

curl-library list and talk about which APIs that are preferred for various
things.

Correct. It could be seen as a flaw and I wouldn't mind seeing this behavior
improved. You can also work around the problem but not adding cookies that
way.
