Certificates can be accessible by means of PKCS#11 - if the security token is changed, it is beneficial when the certificate comes along with the key.

This should be enabled in the CLI.

    The OpenSSL engine interface only supports use of keys, but not their generation nor storing and retrieving certificates. PKCS#11 (and to some extent also PKCS#15) can indeed be used here.

    For Windows, an interface to CNG (for accessing the Windows cert and key stores) would be nice.
