Simply do it. jquery.json is a core module (
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/RL/DM#jQuery.json ) for stringifying your data;
if you want something better than a cookie you can use jquery.jStorage

A cookie is sent to the server with each request within the same domain; it has
a very limited storage quota so storing strings can be difficult.

If you can, submit a patch and ask someone you trust to review before the next
round of the personal carousel is driven by the WMF or more fancy ideas like
disallowing quotation marks (so you can't save JSON strings) pop up here.

>RFC
Reading Krinkle's comment, it sounds like WONTFIX or will be fixed when some
extension is ready in the future. So an RFC won't change this, I guess.
