Yes and no. It's not bad to have low-level tools which are useless
for end users. Those tools are very useful for developers.

Agree that end-user GUIs need more sophisticated functionality than
may be offered by most or even all existing OpenSC tools. But that
does not mean that current OpenSC tools should be modified or
deprecated, only that either new tools in OpenSC are needed, or that
GUIs have to implement more glue.

To some degree the things that are needed may depend on the GUI
environment, so it may not be feasible to keep one single
implementation for all GUIs inside OpenSC.

I guess just start working on one of the GUI projects and see what
makes most sense along the way?
