Currently, it's not that easy to get the keygrip for an OpenPGP
smartcard key.

For keys for which the public part is available, it's:
$ gpg --card-status
Note desired KEYID
$ gpg --with-keygrip -k $KEYID
Find the KEYID in the certificate listed and see the keygrip below it.

I have smartcards with Auth keys that are not part of an OpenPGP
certificate. For these and other cases where the public part is not in
the keyring, it's more difficult to get the keygrip. Probably something
like:
$ gpg-connect-agent 'keyinfo --list' /bye|grep 87061340
for my GnuK with serial FFFE 87061340.

So if --card-status would actually use the --with-keygrip option, it
would be much easier to look up the keygrip for an OpenPGP smartcard,
*especially* when the smartcard is not currently in use by gpg. Even
though the query is done by "gpg --card-status", it is more a feature
for OpenPGP smartcards regardless of whether they are used for OpenPGP keys.
