One small issue occurs during debugging, in that if you do accept and hide you no longer have means of displaying the popup and therefore checking the funtion.

Provide an overide switch in the admin to allow for this so that after an update the function can be verified.

Whether this should be roll specific, is another consideration

OK thinking more on this it may be a combined feature performing multi functions

http://drupal.org/node/1569478 it is not exactly the same. But is designed to allow a user to un-consent

This feature is to allow debugging following updates and may just apply to admin, but its intent is to verify function so probably should be temporary.

A third feature has just come to mind and that is to re-enable the pop-up for a changed cookie policy. Which makes me think that somehow the policy should be monitored for changes, and maybe this automatically re-set

Good ideas to improve the module but I have not enough time right now to work on those. If there is more people requesting this kind of functionality, I will come back to it.

There is now a new feature request that should also address all the issues listed on this page.

Please have a look at http://drupal.org/node/1633706 I would appreciate your input.

Why hide all of it? How do we provide a visitor a way to change his mind?

If a user consented in the first place, and then after a while changes his mind, isn't it logical there are places where the visitor can do so. For instance by providing a link or something?

Here is an approach that allows the user to undo consent in the popup: #1760338: Add an "Undo consent"-link to popup. The JS that handles this could possibly be extended to work on an arbitrary page where site owners can just add a certain CSS class to a link ("Clear your cookies here"), and that would then "reset" their consent status and show the popup again.
For now, that only works directly in the popup, but it could be extended.
