Just a quick comment ..
The java source you quoted is from our support for the cdcard keystore
which is not related in any way to a pkcs#11/smartcard keystore.
The cdcard keystore is basically an encrypted pkcs#12 with the following
little tweak: instead of entering the pkcs#12 password directly you
enter a 4-digit pin and obtain the pkcs#12 password from a server (if
the correct 4-digit pin was entered). The national PKI here in Denmark
uses the cdcard keystore.
As we are talking about extending OpenSign, allow me to promote our Open
Source Your Summer Initiative[1], where we will be paying the
participants for contributing to eg. OpenSign - a pkcs#11 keystore would
be a cool project proposal for OSYS '07!
