Comment (by fdupont):

 The OpenSSL module in Python is a builtin one so this proposal should only
 make dependencies more complex...
 BTW IMHO we should try to use PKCS!#11 as a generic crypto API when
 SoftHSMv2 will be ready (SoftHSMv2 is a software PKCS!#11 implementation
 using OpenSSL **or** Botan for backend) so the crypto will be performed by
 OpenSSL or Botan or hardware (aka HSM).
