werner added a comment to T6135: Agent, P15: Insert Smartcard query uses serial number instead of $DISPSERIALNO.

If the stub has been created or updated we will now ask for the card
with the Display-SN. If in addition a Label has been set to the key
that label is also shown. Note that the Display-S/N is associated wit
a card but the Label is associated with a key. For example if the
same key has been stored on two cards, the prompt will ask for one of
those cards but shows the same same Label. It is sufficient to insert
any of the cards with the key because that is what we actually need.
