I've checked the PKCS11 FAQ and it doesn't list all of them,

cut to trudging through the source :)
you mean like using a search engine?

You'd also need to search inside the NSS source tree.
If you only look at the search results above, you'd
conclude that Firefox doesn't use the AES encryption
algorithm and the SHA-256 hash algorithm, but it does.
Jim, you may want to look at the CoolKey PKCS #11 module:
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/CoolKey#CoolKey_PKCS_.2311_module
It was written by programmers on the NSS team and works
with Firefox and Thunderbird. So you could use it as a
reference.
