Description

Please consider adding Yubikey support as an alternative to smart card. Potential benefits:

1. Yubikey readily available in many markets (so is smart card)
2. Supports more "out of the box" experience: doesn't require additional shield or PCB. Just power DIY from E5V or STLK connections, and plugs into micro-USB (will require user to have a USB to micro-USB adaptor cable, probably).

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by mapping the existing smart-card support and the device's USB and power paths, then determine the Yubikey integration and hardware requirements. Done means an agreed implementation scope covering the alternative authentication flow and the required DIY connections.
