Exactly for now I don't have better way to make link betwin windows and
opensc
And this is more secure than the patch since forbidden function like
SCardDisconnect
(this can make a scratch) can't be call since not implemented in the
drivers.

Yes.

Moreover keep in mind more use of opensc is done more usefull and longtime
the project will exist,

So to give the possibility for all windows application using cryptographics
to use opensc is interesting...
