Jasvir responded to an earlier version of your question at
http://groups.google.com/group/google-caja-discuss/browse_thread/thread/35e3c75232c89ecb
:

I don't think I understand the question.  Webstorage apis like localstorage
and sessionStorage are exposed via javascript apis.  A container using caja
can expose access to these api or attenuate access to it.  This is called
taming.  Caja doesn't provide a default taming for webstorage.  Is this what
you are asking for?

If so, I don't understand how SSL fits into your question.  The security
model for webstorage apis are based on same-origin making them vulnerable to
spoofing attacks.  This is only partially mitigated by SSL and certainly
doesn't help for the use case for which Caja is intended where third party
code is being served on the same domain as container code.
