That would be awesome.

Since smart cards can be used for all sorts of things, I'd like to ask:
What specific features are you most interested in gain via such integration.

I'm interested in such work and integration. However I've never used a
smart card ... *blush* ... I don't have a reader. However I have worked
extensively with PKCS#11 and know the theory behind smart cards. In fact
gnome-keyring is based on PKCS#11.

I imagine the donation does not include a reader, am I correct?
