Client Side Session management

We have been deploying web applications for a number of years now. Where
possible we have adopted standards, how for transactional web based
applications we have had to question the standard "CGI" model.

One thing we think that would be of massive benefit is client side session
data (more than just cookies) support. Such that data can be held in the
memory of the client. This would enable not having to write code to
repopulate forms. Also would overcome the constant issue of Browser back
buttons picking up cached forms (which then have to be expired so the server
can represent the data).

Is this issue being addressed by XForms / W3C ?

hearing about what you the customers would like to see. ..
