Not sure what exactly you are trying to do. The keystore has interfaces for
storing keys (and since JB directly generating), but those are not
public. Anyone
(i.e., not system-level permission required) can use them though, so the
Android browser probably is. Of course if you use them, you risk
breaking in the
next Android version.
