Correct, and I have such rules installed. As udev/systemd itself
contains the rules I posted, I considered there is an intent to
autonomously set this access for devices which cleanly expose their
CCID compatibility, so I did not bring those into the report.

Also, my device using a very generic vendor & device number (which is
probably not very good practice, but I do not think as a hobbyist
developer I have what it takes to get my own vendor id from USB-IF...
but I think this I am getting off-topic), the approach used in gnupg
rules do not suit this device.

Thanks for the suggestion, I opened an issue upstream:
