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.
