what i had in mind was more along the lines of: is there a way to
programmatically create a note and put secure program-specific data
within it?
I don't think there's a programmatic API to create secure notes.
However, you may create a password entry, which a random string as
the password. Then, you will be able to use this random string as a
key for a cryptographic algorithm like 3DES or IDEA (use openssl for
that) to store a ciphered version in a regular file. That the
solution used by Safari for form auto-completion.
