Do you think that *maybe* is there any open source authentication
possibility what can be utilised with the card? Like PGP signing for
files and mails, perhaps?

Just seems like a solution chasing a problem. For identification,
sure a qr code might be ok... But then a username is ok for that purpose too. For
authentication, though, it's generally inappropriate to use an easily duplicatable,
static factor that has to be exposed during authentication (and potentially at other
times).
Let requirements drive tech. Don't let tech drive requirements.
