Well, that is the same as scdaemon does ;-)

Note also that you may use the card for ssh logins.  We are also
working on a pkcs#11 library to allow Mozilla using scdaemon.  Right
now I can use the OpenPGP card to login to web servers.  I try to
extend this to the your card but I have to see whether this will work
out.
