I was looking at the GGI specs keeping in mind the PC/SC specs.
It seems that GGI defines a "display" console as a pair - a monitor
and an input device.  Other input devices, such as a mouse are
optional.  I'm thinking that a sc reader would probably fit into
the definition of a GGI "display" nicely.

The related link is:

However, this means that there will be several different configurations
that would need to be written for *each* reader.  It would be nice
if someone could think of a clean way to solve this - perhaps something
similar to the VFS (virtual file system) implementation in the existing
Linux kernels would work...

Or, we could ignore GGI for now, but it would be nice to at least 
design the PC/SC implementation with flexibility for expansion in 
mind!

Thoughts?
