I used to have a reader where the keyboard was plugged into the reader instead of the regular PS/2 port. I wonder if OpenSC used that as it was meant to be used, with the reader directly intercepting the keyboard input for PIN, so it never enters host's memory. These days peripherals are all USB, so that nice security feature is now gone. (Any readers where plugging in USB keyboard is possible?)
We have pinpad readers these days. Check http://www.opensc- project.org/opensc/wiki/PinpadReaders
To load opensc module so that firefox would not ask PIN codes every time it wants to read a certificate, use the 'friendly' bit for the module (either NSS modutil or load the opensc-pkcs11 module via a web interface supporting this, like http://www.opensc-project.org/ ideelabor/wiki/VeebisAutentimineMozillaga)
