Password manager with external fingerprint reader keyboard for T500

If I get the Lenovo Fingerprint Reader Keyboard for when I have my T500 in the minidock with an external monitor, will the password manager be able to switch seamlessly between the two fingerprint readers?

 

One reason for asking is that I see the T500 fingerprint reader has a different manufacturer and thus different software drivers than earlier Thinkpads and so will probably also be different from the reader in the external keyboard, which shipped in 2005.

 

I am trying to reduce the hazzle of password manager prompting me when docked and not having access to the thinkpad fingerprint reader, so what I don't need is new password manager problems when switching to an external fingerprint reader.

T500: Vista Bus 32 SP1, T9600 2.8GHz, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 15.4" WSXGA+ 1680x1050, 500GB 7200rpm SATA, ATI Radeon HD3650 + Intel 4500MHD, Intel WiFi 5100, Intel Turbo 2GB, 9c Li-Ion. T42: XP SP3, Pentium M735 1.7GHz, 2GB RAM, 14.1" XGA 1024x768, 250GB PATA, ATI Radeon 7500, Intel WiFi 2200
