Well, I know.  However you know my point of view: pkcs#11 is a

important things left out.  It is only required (and that complex) to
let one proprietary software speak to another proprietary one. 

Things can be much easier with FS.  Why support proprietary stuff?

Please write one; gpg-agent provides all you need to do that.  It may
actually be useful for use with Mozilla..
