I don't think HW support is viable assuming we're talking in the context of the validator client since it requires a physical keypress for each signature.

there are interactive modes of operation where you just leave the HW client running and the validator client essentially pipes it hashes to sign w/in the secure chip

the bigger blocker there is getting a nice BLS implementation onto the various HW wallets which to my understanding is a stream of work that hasn't really happened yet.

from there, we would just want to drop a thin abstraction around the HW API into the validator client
