crypto-ISSUE-30 (where is the key ?): How does the application know where the key is stored ? [Web Cryptography API]

Karen, Asad, and all,
As per your request of todays call, I have created an issue about the location of the key. Feel free to amend/comment its description and agree with the editors to make sure it is correctly expressed in the version of our draft API going to the FPWD. 
Regards,
Virginie

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.
