Most of the stuff is under non-disclosure.  I've seen certain
specifications, but haven't personally studied them in detail.  From
what I know the protocol itself is intended to be secure.

Yes, I agree that it would be good if it was possible for users to
supply their own keys.  Currently, it does not fit into the process
how SIM cards are produced and initialized.  I personally hope that
such provision can be incorporated in future.
