Just to clarify - it wouldn't be attaching just one reader, right?  If
we have 4 test systems, then ideally, we'd attach 4 of these readers, so
that all the machines would test identically, right?

And we would need to add a kvm option to attach this device when we
started kvm, but that shouldn't be hard.
