NSS needs to support external biometrics to unlock tokens. Today there are limitation in the PKCS#11 specifications which make it hard to replace the traditional smartcard PIN UI prompt with an external biometric operation. For example, we would like to unlock smartcards using a fingerprint reader or retina scanner.
