I'm curious about this, not having seen anything on the subject for a few years.

Perhaps you need to create a Custom Credential Provider?

Wacom seems to have an on-screen keyboard for the login prompt.  It

Sorry I don't have more solid information, these are just some links
of interest from my brief Googling.
