I just released version 0.0.11 of https://crates.io/crates/openpgp-card-tools (plus new versions of the underlying libraries https://crates.io/search?q=openpgp-card).

These releases add more "User Interaction" functionality:
- Configuring touch confirmation for operations that use private key material (https://gitlab.com/hkos/openpgp-card/-/tree/main/tools#set-touch-policy).
- A mechanism to notify clients of the libraries when touch confirmation is needed (the 'opgpcard' tool uses this too).

Also, the output of 'opgpcard status' has been slightly restructured, for clarity.
