Quoting 4.3 of the spec: 
Additionally, this API does not deal with or address the discovery of
cryptographic modules, as such concepts are dependent upon the underlying
user agent and are not concepts that are portable between common operating
systems, cryptographic libraries, and implementations.

None of the browsers support loading / using keys managed by the OS or other
PKCS#11 interface.

My best suspicions would be to either enhance importKey or add a new,
non-standard (yet) CryptoKey enumeration.
