The information is also used to prompt the user to insert a specific
card.  The serial number is a good way to identify a card because it is
printed onto the card.  However some configurable way to name a card is
also useful.

I am currently working on recording all serial numbers used with a token
based key in the shadow key info file.  The new format allows easy
manual editing of that info and also allows to put a "Label:" line into
the the file to be prompted with e.g. "The green token on my keyring".


Shalom-Salam,
