drh So, any thoughts on the matter?
Could clear up some stuff...
Hmm, a general UI function in OpenSSL that takes the following

I don't think that one UI function is a good solution:

Exactly what do you mean? If it's the separation between strings,

The problem is that OpenSSL PIN handling is all over the place. The PEM
stuff has PIN callbacks applicable on a per call basis even
