Description
Hello, is there some guide on how to use signxml using a hardware token?
-- I'm not sure if this is a feature request or just something I didn't find in the documentation -- I did spend a good time looking for it, but couldn't find it.
As a note, I actually can get to sign with the PyKCS11 library, but it doesn't really provide the other parts expected from XAdES (so, not sure if some integration would be welcome if it's something not supported).

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are identified. First determine whether signxml supports hardware-token signing and whether PyKCS11 can provide the required XAdES parts; then clarify whether the desired outcome is documentation or an integration feature. Done means the supported workflow and scope are explicitly documented.
