Hello Douglas,

please have a look at that picture [1]. FYI the cardmod resides on the
same level as OpenSC.tokend does. As you can see, there is a clear
distinction between the library 'libopensc' and the applications (shown
at the top).

So, if there is a problem within a particular application, that problem
should also be fixed within the same application. If that isn't possible
at all, then improvements in libopensc may be considered. Preferable in
a way that other/future applications can also take advantage of it.
That's my personal opinion and the reason of my resistance about your
patch.

You don't have to but you could explain how that would improve libopensc
[1]?

No objections.

What are you talking about?
