Thanks for providing this excellent module in the nick of time.
The "legal" module has a facility for requiring further input from the user if the policy (in that case site's terms and conditions) change. This facility would be useful for the site's cookie policy too, especially initially as we all experiment with how this should work. Instead of setting a boolean true / false for cookie-agreed-en you could set a timestamp and compare it with another timestamp from the config page. There might be some synergies with the idea of unconsenting that someone else has added.

The EU Cookie Law is about privacy information. Does it make sense then to store user information about consenting to previous cookie policy?
if a user consented before, we could ask if we may set a cookie whether to provide him with updated policy information when he visits the next time. In my opinion this is less intrusive then storing user related information in a database.
