Why not use an opt-in system where a USB device contains a person's private 
key which is used to authenticate to a website?  They device is a complete 
encryption solution so that the key is never transferred to a computer, but 
the website challenges the browser, which challenges the device, which uses 
public key encryption to reply.  Such a device could also be used to contain 
personal information such as name, address, etc. so that automatic 
form-fillers in web browsers could be more effective and useful especially 
for roaming users.
