Software supporting AES instruction set
Would anyone object to limiting software to software libraries? It seems like the list will grow until it is unmanageable if the only restriction is software. If the restriction is software libraries, the growth will be checked, and it will provide useful information for programmers who need a list of supporting libraries.

Security
There is no discussion about security implications. In the non-hw assisted case the CPU has a hard time figuring out what is your key. In this case, you're essentially giving a black box your key, AND telling it the semantics too "this here is my key".
How can you be sure there isn't (for example) a built-in SRAM cache which stores the most-recently used 500 keys?
