Nope - sorry. But the short answer is just plain "no". The long answer is that this would violate major, long standing security restrictions. In short if you could find a way to do this it would be considered a critical bug. I've often wished that the browser was a bit more complex in this regard. I would love to have to ability to mark cookies as "public" or "private" which would also suit your needs, but it just ain't happening.
