I don't think that we want to continue with Poldi.  However, Gniibe
wrote back in 2022 gpg-auth, which is a proper part of GnuPG.  This
should make it easier to use a token for authentication and drop the
need for a password.  It needs to be integrated into the display
managers.  Another idea is to use your tokenized ssh key to open the
lock of your entrance door.
