Comment:

 I can do this, and I have an empty card device which has never been used.
 My main issue with it is that it won't handle ECC keys, and won't handle
 keys larger than 3072 bits. But if we want a 3072 certify-only identity
 key, I can do that.

 FWIW, it would be nice to have some sort of shared-secret recovery method
 for this key, i.e. with k=8 and n=3 (because I really don't think it would
 be possible to get more than three people to collude to be in the same
 physical location within a relatively short timeframe).
