OpenPGP cards and on-device subkeys

Hi there,

I would like to know if it's possible to obtain a setup like the following:

* master key on an OpenPGP smartcard
* an encryption subkey both on smartcard and on disk (laptop, phone etc)
* a signing subkey both on smartcard and on disk (laptop, phone etc)

In the best scenario one would be able to revoke the subkeys and
generate new, without using an off-card copy of the master key, but as
far as I understood that is not possible.
