Yes, that would be nice. But I don't understand how it could work without an
extra tool to handle password changes. 

Even without the encrypt/decrypt functionality a tool like ssh-keygen for 
yubikey in base would be nice. It could be used to generate the key and id
file and write it to the yubikey.
