attribute to require pkinit?

How about an attribute that lists the acceptable preauth types for a  
user [combined with preauth_required flag]?  The "hw_auth" flag would  
be a complementary attribute that might limit the acceptable client  
certificates to those known to be on a smartcard.

This maintains the client's ability to select an acceptable preauth  
type based on their current capabilities (smartcard reader attached?  
SecurID card in hand?)
