Save userid in the cookie and use SetUserId well the first time.

This can be useful for visitors from emailing, which comes to my site through a link in this way.

http://www.example.com/?email=xxxxxxx@example.com

But in subsequent visits have not said userid, but if you have saved in the cookie can track more useful.

Thanks @druidajes for the suggestion, it would be a nice new feature to have. If we implement such change it would change how User ID works, so we'd have to think about it in detail and upgrade User ID user guide accordingly. Maybe it could be opt-in so that only people who really need to persist User ID in cookies would turn it on.

I think this feature would be great. Right now, it's a little confusing: Visitors might be recognized as a returning visitor, but not as a returning user.
