Howdy misc,

Following -current and have been affected by the recent yubico changes.
I use the yubikey slots to unlock my disk (FDE) at boot and the other
slot as my users's password. I'm not necessarily asking for a reversion
as I understand my use case may be in the miniority. I'm more interested
in first making sure that future changes won't lock me out of my
machine. I can still use the keyboard functionality at the disk unlock
prompt at boot but not at login with the existing changes. I don't mind
running a custom kernel so that's not an issue if this is not meant to
change.

I have however been using this setup for quite some time and this
episode has prompted a re-evaluation. I try to spend most of my
computing time on an OpenBSD box now a days so I'm interested in
finding a well (or better) supported alternative. I do use some of the
other features like fido and have a set of auth and signing keys loaded
so these would be nice to haves but not deal breakers. I was previously
using a keydisk at boot but it's hard to beat the form factor of the
nano on a laptop and the convenience of only have to worry about one usb
device. Interested in community suggestions or alternative setups
proposals. Just for brevity the convenience for my use case of having
my user password tied to the keyboard functionality is mainly in using
the same as my access password for my password manager making the
obscene amount of times I have to use it throughout my day a bit more
bearable.
