This is how we will do it.

* Standby keys will become an optional parameter in kasp.xml (and removed from 
the kasp.xml example)
* They will be marked as experimental in the documentation (because we do not 
support offline HSMs yet)
* The system will handle standby keys, if the user still believe that the 
current implementation gives them what they want
* In a future version we will support offline HSMs and standby keys will not be 
experimental anymore.
