The notifications are required by Indy's internals.  If a user assigns an
external CookieManager to a TIdHTTP and then frees the CookieManager,
TIdHTTP has to be notified of that so that it knows to not try to access
that CookieManager anymore.  That is a basic rule of VCL component writing.

That depends on what you are actually doing.
