I confirm that i'm lazy and thus stupid too.
I'm now somewhat ignorant as i'm too lazy to think but might it cause
problems if the application and actual reader ar eon different endian
machines ?

I've been told that some time this summer. I've also been told that
teletrust class 2 spec will be included as part10 to pcsc v2 spec and
the interface will undergo only cosmetics. So the interface should not
change.

Wither way, what is needed in pcsc for this is the introduction of
SCARD_CTL_CODE
and the ability to send no data with SCardControl. Everything else can
be kept out of the scope of pcsclite. Needed tag codes can be kept
separately at ccid and application side if needed.

But it would be nice to be able to use the capabilities of the reader
before somebody decides that it is now nice time to publish some kind
of a spec.
