So I think this is a great start, but the entirety of this proposal
might be too much (at least for me) to digest all at once.  So my vote
would be that we start with the simplest SIM authentication mechanism
and implement it first.  We can mark the API as experimental during this
time.  Then add additional mechanisms as we gain better understanding /
have time to read the specs.

Specifically I'd like to see the flow from the core atom to the AT / ISI
modem.

Regards,
-Denis
