Without knowing much about webseal (only simple googling), webseal 
really seems to be a very custom IBM product that does one thing: 
Integrate into Tivoli Access Manager - meaning they've very specific 
features (such as single sign-on) etc.
nginx is a general webserver, it doesn't hook into your backend system, 
usually you proxy some requests to it, or serve some files.

The only way I can think of, is by using LUA to rewrite the Set-Cookie 
headers, but it's not really a nice solution.
