> Under the new proposal, some “non-risk” cookies won’t trigger pop-ups at all, and users would be able to control others from central browser controls that apply to websites broadly.

For 'central browser control', what is technically mechanism behind this? Is it something like an entirely new request header sent by the browser? Or re-using some existing RFC? Also curious if the regulation will compel browsers to implement this or something.

Managing cookie permissions at the browser level always made the most sense, but implementing it with regulation is what seems hard.
