During our discussion on the 27th of august, the problem related to usage of keys stored in secure element has been discussed. While a previous issue (#11] has been already closed about the definition of a specific attribute for indicating if the key was stored in a specific secure element (or crypto providers), the problem about making sure the application is aware of the key location is still pending. The means for solving this specific problem do not need to rely on a specific attribute.
