The use case is any ENGINE that stores keys internally, such as PKCS11, HSMs, TPMs, etc.

You can see OpenSSL CLI apps handling keys similarly:

Related to #10 it seems.

@kakwa Gentle ping :) Any thoughts on this PR? I've tested it with e_nss which will give a PKCS11 soft-token view and can provide instructions for that if you're interested.
